Earlier, the Indian Embassy in Tehran urged Indian nationals to exercise utmost caution and avoid unnecessary movements after a major joint military strike by Israel and the United States on Iran. The Indian Embassy in Tel Aviv also advised all Indian nationals in Israel to remain vigilant.
Israel and the US launched a joint military operation against Iran, codenamed Operation Roaring Lion, targeting military sites, missile production facilities, and areas near Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s office. The operation name was reportedly chosen by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to The Times of Israel.
Several ministries in southern Tehran were reportedly struck, and residents heard powerful blasts. The strikes and subsequent developments have heightened fears of a wider regional conflict, prompting emergency measures and growing public anxiety.
Israel declared a nationwide state of emergency, moved hospitals underground, and activated sirens. Iran, Israel, and Iraq closed their airspace, suspending all flights. The attacks have also disrupted nuclear negotiations between the US and Iran in Oman.
