On Friday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an updated travel advice urging all Austrians to leave Iran immediately. This warning was reiterated after Lufthansa canceled flights to and from Tehran and Austrian Airlines (AUA) suspended its flights until next Thursday. The German Foreign Ministry has also advised its citizens to leave Iran amid escalating tensions between the country and Israel.
The background to this updated travel advice is the growing hostilities between Iran and Israel, with the Iranian regime threatening a retaliatory strike following the killing of Iranian commanders in Damascus. The region around the Gaza Strip and along the border with Lebanon and Syria, where pro-Iran militias operate, pose particular security concerns.
The Foreign Ministry spokesperson confirmed that a travel warning has been in place for Iran for some time, but the updated advice reflects the increased risk in light of current events. The ministry advises against traveling to Iran due to the tense situation in the region and emphasizes that there is a heightened risk of danger. It’s important for all Austrians who are currently in Iran or planning on traveling there soon to take immediate action and follow their government’s instructions for their safety.
