The charge d’affaires was asked to swiftly secure the release of a group of Iranian teachers who were detained despite their years of lawful service in an Iranian school there.

Iranian Foreign Ministry has summoned the United Arab Emirates’ charge d’affaires in Tehran over the detention of Iranian teachers in the Persian Gulf country.

The charge d’affaires, called upon in the absence of the UAE’s ambassador to Iran on Sunday, was asked to swiftly secure the release of a group of Iranian Ministry of Education teachers who were detained despite their years of lawful service in an Iranian school there.

The UAE diplomat stressed that he would promptly bring up the subject of their release with his country’s relative authorities.

Emirati officials have announced the teachers’ work permits were issued for employment in Dubai and as of yet permits for employment in Abu Dhabi have not been issued.
