Dhaka, June 17 -- Diplomatic and other staff stationed at the Bangladesh Mission in Tehran are likely to be shifted to a safer location any day now due to the escalation in Iran-Israel war.

The mission is in touch with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in this regard, said a diplomatic source.

The chancery is not safe, said the source, noting that there is sensitive infrastructure (first nuclear research centre of Tehran University) located within one kilometre of it. Attempts were made to destroy it in the past days, according to UNB.

One of the two communication (internet) hubs of Tehran is also very close to the chancery.

Officers and staff of the Embassy fear becoming collateral damage of any attack on those infrastructures.
