Operation Sindhu Continues: Over 3,154 Indians Evacuated from Iran
Imagine a tense situation in Iran, like a fight between two countries.
Because of this, the Indian government started a special rescue mission called Operation Sindhu to help Indian people get out safely.
They've brought home over 3,154 Indians and some Nepalese people, flying them back on special flights.
There was a lot of worry when the countries were fighting, but now they've agreed to stop fighting for a while, which is a good sign.
Operation Sindhu has evacuated 3,154 Indian nationals and 4 Nepalese citizens from Iran.
A recent flight carried 296 Indian nationals and 4 Nepalese citizens to New Delhi.
The evacuation was launched due to escalating tensions and conflict, following strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
A ceasefire brokered by the US and facilitated by Qatar took effect on June 24, 2025.
The operation started on June 18 to evacuate Indian nationals amid the conflict between Iran and Israel.
