Evacuations during the 2026 Iran war

During the 2026 Iran war, a series of evacuations took place across Iran and the broader Middle East, involving civilians, foreign nationals, military personnel, and diplomatic staff. These evacuations were prompted by joint United States and Israeli airstrikes on Iran beginning 28 February 2026, which led to retaliatory Iranian missile and drone attacks on U.S. bases and allied nations in the region. The conflict disrupted air travel, closed airspace in multiple countries, and created widespread security risks, stranding hundreds of thousands and necessitating government-organized repatriations.
