Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, a major relief effort has brought 101 Indian medical students safely back home from Iran via Armenia, offering much-needed reassurance to families across the country.
The students, many of whom were pursuing MBBS in Iranian universities, had been facing growing uncertainty due to the deteriorating security situation in the region. With limited flight operations and safety concerns, authorities facilitated their evacuation through a land route to Armenia, from where they boarded flights back to India.
This evacuation is part of a broader effort by the Indian government to assist its citizens stranded in Iran. Officials have been coordinating safe exit routes through neighbouring countries like Armenia and Azerbaijan, ensuring students can return home without risk.
Earlier reports also indicated that multiple batches of Indian students had begun leaving Iran through similar routes as tensions escalated, highlighting the urgency of the situation.
The safe return of these 101 students marks another successful step in ongoing evacuation efforts, bringing relief to families and underlining India’s commitment to protecting its citizens abroad.
