FaytuksNetwork posted an editorial note after the @GermanyInIran account marked their tweet as “false” for stating the German embassy in Tehran had closed. The outlet clarified that they had reported a withdrawal of personnel, not a closure, and that a building can remain open while some staff are pulled.

The Germany in Iran account marked our tweet “false,” saying “the German embassy in Tehran remains open.” We never reported that it was closed, we reported that embassy personnel had been withdrawn, per a German diplomat who spoke to us directly. Those are two different claims; a building can stay open while some staff are pulled.
