Iran issues travel advisory for Italy, France, and Belgium

The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a consular advisory recommending that its citizens avoid non-essential travel to Italy, France, and Belgium. The warning cites an escalation in civil unrest, riots, and potential public order issues in these countries.

In Italy, specifically in Milan, recent weekend violence and disturbances have prompted the advisory. Iranian citizens currently residing in these three nations are urged to avoid areas of tension and protest sites. The ministry also cautioned that travelers should prepare for possible disruptions to public transportation services and advised citizens to keep the contact information of Iranian diplomatic missions readily available.
