Indian Embassy Issues Advisory in Abu Dhabi Amid Rising Tensions

On Saturday, the Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi released an advisory for its citizens residing in the Middle Eastern nation.

The embassy urged individuals to avoid non-essential travel and assured that they are closely monitoring the situation, promising updates as necessary. The advisory stated, considering the current conditions in the region, all Indian nationals in the UAE are advised to refrain from non-essential travel, remain vigilant, and adhere to the safety guidelines and advisories issued by UAE authorities and the embassy.

The UAE's Defense Ministry firmly denounced the attacks, rejecting any targeting of civilian facilities, installations, and national institutions. They stressed that such actions are cowardly and pose a threat to civilian safety and stability. Regarding Iran, the country has condemned the US and Israel's joint strikes and warned of retaliatory actions. An official statement indicated that Iran would continue to target US and Israeli bases in the Middle East until they are defeated, cautioning that the situation should not be taken lightly.
