About the US–Iran conflict that escalated in the Middle East
Following joint military operations by the United States and Israel against Iran, which reportedly led to significant casualties among Iran’s political and military leadership, tensions escalated across the Middle East. Iran retaliated by targeting US bases in the region, which led to flight disruptions in Dubai and other Middle Eastern cities, leaving many travellers stranded.
Several Indian actors, including Sonal Chauhan and Esha Gupta, along with other Indian nationals, were stranded in Dubai. However, two days ago, the actors returned home safely, and other Indian citizens are also being evacuated.
