India strongly advises nationals not to travel to Iran by air or land

India on Thursday advised its citizens not to travel to Iran by air or land, following reports that some flights between the two countries had resumed.

The Indian Embassy in Tehran in its latest advisory also said that the "airspace restrictions and operational uncertainties due to regional tensions continue to affect international flight operations to and from Iran".

"In view of reports of commencement of some flights between India and Iran, and in continuation of earlier advisories, Indian citizens are strongly advised not to travel to Iran, whether by air or land," the embassy said.
