In response to escalating tensions in the Middle East, India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has issued a travel advisory for Indian nationals travelling to or residing in Iran. Shared on X by External Affairs Minister Randhir Jaiswal on October 2, the advisory urges Indians to avoid all non-essential travel to Iran amid the deteriorating security situation. The MEA has emphasized the importance of vigilance for those already in the country and advised them to maintain contact with the Indian Embassy in Tehran. This advisory comes on the heels of a significant escalation in hostilities, with Iranian forces reportedly launching approximately 180 missiles towards Israel on Tuesday, October 2. Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu has responded by warning of “consequences” following this missile barrage, further heightening concerns over regional stability. ‘Iran Made a Big Mistake, Will Pay for It’, Says Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu After Tehran Strikes Tel Aviv With Missiles.
