Britain is withdrawing some diplomats from Iran following the attack on its embassy in the capital, Tehran, on Tuesday, diplomatic sources say.
The Foreign Office said “some staff” were leaving “for their own safety”, but gave no further details of the numbers involved.
Norway has said it has closed its embassy, citing security concerns.
Tuesday’s attack followed Britain’s decision to impose further sanctions on Iran over its nuclear programme.
