India Iran Advisory: A new advisory has been issued by the Indian Embassy in Iran asking nationals to immediately leave the Islamic Republic of Iran. A new helpline number has been launched to facilitate the process. The advisory has been issued possibly because India is expecting that the 2-week ceasefire would NOT last for long and massive airstrikes by USA and Israel on Iran may soon be on the cards.
India Iran Advisory Issued
The advisory reads that Indian nationals in Iran are strongly urged to immediately leave Iran using the suggested routes and in coordination with the Indian Embassy in Iran.
India issued new emergency numbers for nationals. They are +98912810915, +989128109109, +989128109102 and +989932179359. The email for contact has been mentioned as cons.tehran@mea.gov.in.
Yesterday, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs urged Indian nationals in Iran to immediately seek shelter and avoid further movements. The Ministry urged Indians in Iran to remain indoors, coordinate any movement on the Iranian highways with the Indian embassy and avoid all military and electric installations along with upper floors of multi-storey buildings.
Is Ceasefire Breakdown On Cards?
The new advisory possibly hints at a likely breakdown of the 2-week ceasefire between USA, Israel and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Many believed that USA and Israel are not likely to honour their ceasefire decision for long as the terms are not favourable to them. Moreover, both US and Israel have a “habit” of not following their own decisions, especially Trump who changes decisions every second like a chameleon.
For instance, Trump initially used abusive language used against Iran and then urged Iran to finalize the ceasefire terms. Then, it warned Iran that its entire civilization would come to an end if the deadline is not honoured. A few hours later, it agreed to a 2-week ceasefire to the surprise of many.
