The Chinese embassy in Iran has issued an important reminder urging Chinese citizens in the country to closely monitor changes in the security situation, as external security risks in Iran have recently increased significantly.

Chinese nationals in Iran are advised to strengthen safety precautions. They should refrain from photographing sensitive locations such as government institutions and military facilities, pay close attention to "No Photography" signs, and avoid accidentally entering or photographing restricted areas. Those planning to travel by air are also urged to stay up to date on flight information at all times.

In case of emergencies, individuals should promptly report to local police and contact the Chinese embassy or consulates in Iran.
