Azerbaijan continues evacuation of Russians from Iran Dozens more have crossed border after hundreds did yesterday

At present, 39 Russians have been evacuated from Iran across the border into Azerbaijan, TASS reports, citing the Russian Embassy in Baku.

Yesterday, March 1, Azerbaijan granted permission for approximately 500 Russian citizens to cross the border from Iran amid the Islamic Republic's military confrontation with Israel and the US. Those who received permits include representatives of organisations and companies operating in Iran. The permits are issued based on requests from the Russian side.
