First group of Indonesians evacuated from Iran arrive home

The group of 22 people is the first brought back to Indonesia by the government, having been evacuated over land from Iran to Azerbaijan before flying on to Jakarta. Zulfanlindan, who was stuck in Iran for 10 days, sheltering at the Indonesian embassy in Tehran, said the situation in the capital was dire. "Ten bombs flew over the embassy, and they exploded just one or two kilometres away, so powerful that the windows in the embassy shook," recounted the 69-year-old, who like many Indonesians has only one name.
