Indian Students In Tehran Being Evacuated To Qom Amid Israel-Iran Conflict
India has also requested Iran for the safe evacuation of its students stuck in cities hit by Israeli bombings. Tehran said that though the airspace is closed over Iran, all land borders are open for the safe evacuation of Indian nationals
Indian students in Tehran are being evacuated to the city of Qom, 148 km away, amid an escalation in conflict between Israel and Iran. This comes after the Indian government, in a statement early Monday, assured that students in the crisis-hit country were being relocated to "safer places" within the country.
More than 1,500 Indian students, most of them from Jammu and Kashmir, are stranded in Iran.
