Canada has called on any of its citizens in Iran to leave as soon as possible as tensions remain high in the region, APA reports.
“Canadians in Iran: Due to ongoing tensions, hostilities in the region could resume with little or no warning. Leave Iran now if you can do so safely,” the government said. “Ensure travel documents are up-to-date and keep sufficient supplies in case you need to shelter in place.”
Earlier this week, Australia said it was instructing family members of its diplomats posted in Israel and Lebanon to leave, and that its citizens in either country should consider leaving before it is too late.
Poland, Sweden, India and others have also called on their citizens to leave Iran as the region holds its breath for a potential escalation.
