In a remarkable rescue operation, over 740 Chinese nationals have been safely evacuated from Iran to Azerbaijan through the Astara border checkpoint by midday Friday. This fast-acting effort by the Chinese Embassy in Azerbaijan underscores a commitment to ensuring every citizen’s safe return during these challenging times. 🚀
Working closely with an association of overseas Chinese living in Azerbaijan, evacuees have been reliably transported by bus to hotels in Baku or have promptly booked flights back to China. This coordinated response is a strong example of effective crisis management and international collaboration. 🚍✈️
The embassy confirmed that more Chinese nationals continue to arrive at the Astara crossing. Their skilled on-site task force remains active, providing necessary support and assistance for those in transit. Every step has been taken to secure the well-being of those on their journey home.
This dynamic operation not only highlights operational excellence in humanitarian efforts but also showcases a spirit of unity and resilience. Stay tuned for further updates as the mission to safely return citizens continues. 🌏✨
