Indian Embassy Advises Nationals to Stay Indoors, Relocates Students Amid Iran Tensions

Amid escalating tensions in West Asia following fresh US and Israeli strikes on Iran, the Indian Embassy in Tehran has advised its approximately 9,000 nationals, including many students, to remain indoors and exercise utmost caution. Most Indian students in Tehran have been relocated to safer locations outside the capital, with arrangements made for their transport, food, and accommodation. A small number declined relocation and remain in Tehran. Indians in Iran are urged to avoid protests, stay away from windows, maintain contact with the embassy, and monitor updates. Similar advisories have been issued for Indian nationals in the UAE, urging vigilance amid regional instability.
