The Indian embassy in Tehran has “strongly advised” Indian citizens against travelling to Iran by air and land.

This advisory has been issued in view of reports of “commencement of some flights between India and Iran, and in continuation of earlier advisories”.

“Airspace restrictions and operational uncertainties due to regional tensions continue to affect international flight operations to and from Iran,” the embassy adds.

“It is further reiterated that all Indian nationals currently in Iran should leave the country through designated land border routes, strictly in coordination with the embassy.”
