Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning

In response to a question on whether there have been any Chinese casualties in the protests in Iran and whether China is calling on its citizens to leave the country, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at Monday's press briefing that China is closely following the situation in Iran and has not received any reports of Chinese citizens being injured or killed there. She added that China will spare no effort to ensure the safety of Chinese nationals in Iran.

Taking this opportunity, Mao also reminded Chinese citizens in Iran to pay close attention to the local security situation and take necessary measures to ensure their own safety. If assistance is needed, they may contact the Chinese Embassy in Iran or call the consular protection hotline.
