A Mahan Air flight (W50071A) carrying over 300 Indian nationals, primarily students stranded in Iran, safely landed at Delhi Airport on Sunday, June 22, bringing an end to a period of intense anxiety and emotional turmoil for hundreds of families, especially in Jammu and Kashmir.
The development comes amid escalating tensions in the Middle East with the United States conducting airstrikes on Iran targeting the nuclear sites.
The evacuees included more than 200 students from Kashmir who had been studying in Iran and found themselves caught in the escalating conflict in the region. Their return brought visible relief to anxious relatives who had been enduring sleepless nights filled with uncertainty about their children’s safety.
