France Urges Nationals to Leave Iran Immediately

France has urged its nationals to leave Iran immediately amid escalating regional tensions following the assassinations of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut, both blamed on Israel. The French Foreign Ministry cited the increased risk of military escalation as the primary reason for the advisory, a sentiment echoed by Poland, which warned its citizens about the difficulty of leaving the region. Haniyeh's killing has heightened fears of a broader conflict in West Asia, with Iran and its proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, vowing revenge. Several Western countries have advised against travel to Israel and Lebanon due to the threat of widening conflict. Additionally, Israel has claimed responsibility for the Beirut strike but has not commented on Haniyeh's assassination.
