The Indian Embassy in Tehran on April 7 urged all Indian nationals in Iran to stay indoors for 48 hours amid rising regional tensions, ANI reported. The advisory cited safety concerns following US President Donald Trump’s warning to Tehran. MEA said 1,862 Indians have been moved to Armenia and Azerbaijan for evacuation.

Tehran: The Indian Embassy in Tehran issued an urgent security advisory on Tuesday, instructing all Indian nationals currently in Iran to remain indoors for the next 48 hours.

This directive comes as regional tensions escalate following a stern warning from US President Donald Trump, who cautioned that "a whole civilisation will die" should Tehran fail to negotiate a new agreement, which includes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

In response to the deteriorating security environment, the diplomatic mission has outlined specific safety protocols for its citizens. In the advisory, the embassy said, "Indian nationals who are still in Iran must stay where they are for the next 48 hours, avoiding all electric and military installations and upper floors of multi-storey buildings, remaining indoors, and coordinating any highway movement strictly with the embassy."

The embassy has also provided clear instructions for those staying in temporary accommodation. "Those in embassy-hired hotels should stay put indoors while maintaining regular contact with on-site embassy teams," the embassy said, adding that "all are requested to monitor official updates closely".
