On April 7, 2023, the Embassy of India in Tehran issued an advisory urging Indian nationals to stay indoors for at least 48 hours amid rising tensions in the region. This advisory comes in response to escalating military exchanges and a dire ultimatum from US President Donald Trump, who warned that 'a whole civilization will die tonight' if tensions continue to escalate. The Indian government has instructed its citizens to avoid military installations and upper floors of multi-storey buildings, advising them to coordinate any movements with embassy authorities. The advisory highlights that those in embassy-arranged accommodations should maintain contact with officials. Iran has dismissed the US ultimatum, insisting it will not comply with demands under pressure and has threatened retaliatory strikes against US allies. The Indian government has emphasized that emergency helplines are available and urged citizens to stay updated with official communications.
