“It is crucial that all issues be addressed through peaceful means,” the MEA said in a statement posted on its social media account on X. This statement came as the Indian government advised its nationals in Israel and Iran to exercise caution. Hours after it warned Indian nationals to avoid unnecessary travel within Israel, the government issued another advisory for Iran and requested people stay in contact with the Indian Embassy in Tehran.
