About the crisis

Gulf nations like Qatar, Iraq, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia have heightened security alerts due to Iran's retaliatory strikes on Israel and US military bases. This has disrupted travel plans, leaving many, including Indian nationals, stranded.

Several airlines have cancelled flights to the Middle East, and countries like Qatar, UAE, and Bahrain have closed or partially closed their airspace. The Indian government has issued advisories for citizens in the region to exercise caution.
