The United States government has ordered the expulsion of two members of the Iranian delegation to the United Nations. According to reports, the State Department issued a directive for the individuals to leave the country on Monday. The action followed a notification from the Iranian mission to the UN, which informed US authorities that the two delegation members had remained in the United States beyond the expiration of their authorized stay.

The incident occurred amidst ongoing diplomatic tensions between Washington and Tehran. While the US State Department has confirmed the expulsion, details regarding the specific identities of the individuals or the exact nature of their activities during the overstay period have not been publicly disclosed. The Iranian mission to the UN has not provided a detailed public response regarding the circumstances of the overstay or the subsequent expulsion order. The situation highlights the strict enforcement of visa regulations for foreign diplomats and delegation members operating within the United States, particularly those representing nations with which the US maintains a strained diplomatic relationship.
