U.S. State Department has announced a new awareness campaign warning Americans, especially Iranian-Americans, about the continuing severe risks of travel to Iran.
A webpage hosted at state.gov/do-not-travel-to-Iran warns U.S. citizens against travelling to Iran, stating in both English and Persian, “Americans—including Iranian-Americans and other dual nationals—have been wrongfully detained, even taken hostage, by the Iranian government for months and even years. The threat of detention is greater today than ever. Do not travel to Iran under any circumstances.”
At Thursday briefing ,Tammy Bruce, Department Spokesperson said, "The Iranian regime does not recognize dual nationality, and routinely denies consular services to detained U.S. citizens. And while the bombing has stopped, that does not mean that it is safe to travel to Iran. It is not."
She added that "It is not safe for anyone to travel to Iran, especially those of you who are dual citizens who have Iranian heritage."
