Many of those stranded travelled for essential, compassionate reasons: to care for loved ones or attend funerals. Now, they are stuck in an increasingly dangerous situation with flights vanishing and borders tightening.
While the UK arranged repatriation flights for citizens in Israel, those in Iran have been left behind. No information. No support. No safe route out.
We ask the Government to follow the lead of other countries to get UK citizens out of Iran by:
- Organising safe routes home for British citizens in Iran
- Providing immediate consular support and information
- Ending the double standard in crisis response
Don't abandon them. Bring them home.
