Tensions have escalated in the Middle East after seven Iranians were killed in an Israeli attack in Syria.
Berlin:
Germany has warned its citizens to leave Iran, saying there is a risk of a sudden escalation in existing tensions between Tehran and Israel and that Germans could face arbitrary arrests in the country.
In a new travel warning issued on Friday, the Foreign Office wrote: “Current tensions, particularly between Israel and Iran, present a risk of sudden escalation.” It added: “Air, land and air travel warnings cannot be ruled out. Maritime transport routes may be affected.”
The Foreign Office said: “German citizens face specific risks of arbitrary arrest, interrogation and lengthy prison sentences. Dual citizens with Iranian and German nationality are particularly at risk.”
