The US State Department called on Americans to leave Iran immediately.
It is noted that the Americans who want to leave Iran can also travel by land to Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkey and Turkmenistan.
US citizens are not advised to visit Afghanistan, Iraq, and the border regions of Pakistan and Iran. The US State Department declares that it should be taken into account that the Iranian government can prevent US citizens from leaving the country or set an “exit fee” for leaving Iran. Persons with dual US and Iranian citizenship must leave Iran with Iranian passports.
