There are approximately 3,500 Canadians in Iran and another 6,700 in Israel amid an escalating conflict between the two countries, Global Affairs Canada says.
The count is based on the voluntary registration of around 80,000 Canadians in the Middle East and doesn’t fully reflect how many of them may need help getting out of the region, the department said in a statement.
Global Affairs Canada added that it hasn’t received any reports of Canadian injuries or deaths in the conflict.
