Karnataka students and B-PAC team stranded amid tensions
With things heating up between Iran and Israel, Indian students in Iran and a civic team visiting Israel are both asking to be evacuated ASAP.
Most of the students are studying medicine, while the 18-member B-PAC group—made up of folks from different political parties—is stuck in Tel Aviv because flights are grounded.
Students in Iran feel the stress
Indian students in Iran are feeling the stress after nearby airstrikes. Some have been moved to safer cities like Qom, and there's talk of getting them out through Armenia.
Five students got minor injuries near Tehran University of Medical Sciences. The Indian Embassy is working to get everyone home safely.
B-PAC group stuck in Tel Aviv
The B-PAC group can't leave Tel Aviv right now since airports are closed due to ongoing conflict.
They're being looked after by the Indian Embassy and local consulate while they wait for updates.
Everyone's hoping for a safe way back soon as the situation keeps changing on the ground.
