Add coordinate points (latitude and longitude) on a figure

Hi, I have the coordinates of some climate stations over a country in the coordinates.mat. The 3rd and 4th column of coordinates.mat represents latitude and longitude of each station. I need to show the locations of stations on the figure to understand the distribution of stations over the country.

here is the code that creates the country figure. NB: The borders function is taken from the MATLAB File Exchange

borders('Iran Islamic Republic of') % border is a 3rd party code from matlab file exchange
grid on
ax.GridLineStyle = '-';
% Modify the X and Y ticks positions
xticks(44:.5:65);
yticks(25:.5:40);

I attached coordinates.mat

Thank you very much

hold on
plot(coordinates.lon, coordinates.lat, 'kx')
xlabel('Longitude')
ylabel('Latitude')
