Both Israel and Iran have taken drastic measures, closing their airspaces and ports as conflict persists, sparking urgent travel advisories from various nations aiming to assist their citizens in evacuating. The U.S. has raised its travel warning to the highest level for Israel and remarked on its inability to evacuate American nationals amid the ongoing crisis, while also discouraging travel to Iran.
China has initiated an evacuation for its citizens in both countries, urging them to exit through neighboring borders, particularly to Jordan. The Chinese Foreign Ministry has implemented emergency protection protocols for its nationals.
South Korea's government has likewise recommended that its citizens leave Iran, emphasizing the need for caution while advising against travel to Israel and sections of Iran. British nationals have been prompted to register with their government for travel safety updates, as the U.K. government has issued travel advisories to limit exposure to the conflict.
Russia's ambassador to Israel has similarly advised Russian nationals to leave the region until stability resumes, affirming an evacuation of several citizens already in Iran and a pause on consular operations in Tehran.
As conditions deteriorate, both land crossings and potential government evacuations are among the few remaining ways for foreign nationals to safely exit the affected areas.
