US Expels Two Iranian Diplomats for Overstaying After UN General Assembly
Two Iranian diplomats who attended the recent UN General Assembly in New York were expelled from the United States after ignoring a State Department order to leave. The US had instructed Iran's UN mission on Monday to ensure the entire delegation departed immediately. After the two diplomats remained in New York for several days, US officials issued a renewed demand, leading to their departure on Friday night and Saturday morning. The incident reflects ongoing tensions between Washington and Tehran amid stalled diplomatic efforts.
