About 500 Russian nationals are readying for evacuation from Iran via Azerbaijan, the Russian embassy in Baku said on Sunday.

"We would like to express our gratitude to the Azerbaijani side for their assistance, including for the prompt consideration of issues related to the issuance of border crossing permits," it said on its Telegram channel.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has recommended Russian nationals to move to safe regions in Israel and Iran or leave the countries after military strikes by Israel and the United States.
