As such, the advisory states that any travel outside of your accommodations by foreigners should only occur after you have confirmed with your local embassy what the current security situation is in Iran.

Embassy Urges Constant Contact and Monitoring of Updates

It is important that you are staying in contact with embassy officials who will be present on-site in their diplomatically arranged accommodations throughout Iran. Advisories like this are suggested as a means to provide maximum security during a period of high uncertainty.

Assistance from the embassy can be accessed through emergency contact numbers and email support, which remain active throughout the ongoing situation. As part of their response to the ongoing situation, the embassy has encouraged people to reach out to them if they encounter any issues or require assistance. This shows how severe the current crisis is and how critical it is that people have access to immediate responses during emergencies.

Although there is a 48 hour notice for emergency contact and email support, it is possible the embassy will place a moratorium on additional restrictions based on the outcome of this situation. The ongoing violence is affecting people’s livelihoods all around Iran, and things could continue to worsen from here.
