Following escalating tensions, the Indian Embassy in Iran has issued a safety advisory for Indian nationals residing in the country. They are urged to remain vigilant, avoid unnecessary movements, and adhere to safety protocols as advised by local authorities and the Embassy’s social media updates. This advisory comes in the wake of a preemptive and precise combined offensive by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) targeting Iran’s nuclear program, dubbed ‘Operation Rising Lion.’ Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the offensive, stating it would continue until the Iranian threat is eliminated. Simultaneously, the Indian Embassy in Israel has also issued a similar advisory for Indian nationals there, advising them to stay vigilant, follow safety protocols set by Israeli authorities and the Home Front Command, and exercise caution while traveling. Furthermore, Delhi Airport has reported that flight schedules may be impacted due to the evolving airspace conditions over Iran, Iraq, and surrounding regions, urging passengers to contact their airlines for the latest updates.
