WARSAW | ROME January 14, 2026 – Poland and Italy have issued urgent calls for their citizens to depart Iran without delay, joining a growing number of nations expressing alarm over the country’s deteriorating security situation.
The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs released a statement urging “the immediate departure from Iran” and advising against all travel to the country. Similarly, Italy’s foreign ministry strongly renewed its appeal for Italian nationals to leave Iran due to the worsening security environment.
These advisories come amid ongoing anti-government protests in Iran, which have intensified with reports of a violent crackdown by authorities and a rising death toll.
Several other countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia, have issued similar warnings in recent days, advising citizens to exit Iran while commercial options remain available. The U.S. has even suggested overland routes to neighboring countries like Turkey or Armenia for those unable to fly out.
Reports also indicate partial evacuations of non-essential personnel from key Western military installations in the region, heightening concerns over potential broader instability.
The developments underscore mounting international worry over Iran’s internal unrest and its implications for regional security. Authorities in Warsaw and Rome have not specified particular threats but cited the overall volatile situation as the basis for their urgent recommendations.
