TEHRAN, June 15. The consular section of the Russian Embassy in Tehran has temporarily suspended operations due to the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran.

The embassy announced the closure on its Telegram channel, stating that the resumption of services will be announced later.

The move follows recent military exchanges between Israel and Iran, including Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and Tehran’s retaliatory attacks. Both sides have reported limited damage but confirmed casualties.

The suspension reflects precautionary measures amid the unstable security situation. Further updates on consular operations are pending.
