(250905) -- TEHRAN, Sept. 5, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This file photo taken on Sept. 2, 2025 shows Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei during a press conference in Tehran, Iran. Iran has reduced the level of Australia's diplomatic presence in the country following Canberra's expulsion of Iranian Ambassador Ahmad Sadeghi last month, Iran's Khabar Foori news website reported Thursday.

Australia's Ambassador to Iran Ian McConville has left the country, while the consular section of Iran's embassy in Canberra remains operational and is trying to provide services to Iranian nationals in Australia despite imposed limitations, Khabar Foori quoted Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei as saying.
