United States embassies across the Middle East have urged American citizens to consider leaving the region or be prepared to depart if the security situation worsens, citing the risk of an unexpected escalation in the ongoing conflict.
The security advisory was issued on Saturday by U.S. embassies in Bahrain, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. It came a day after U.S. President Donald Trump warned that Iran could face a strong military response.
The embassies advised Americans to remain vigilant, monitor official travel updates, and prepare for possible flight cancellations, airspace closures, and other travel disruptions. Citizens were also encouraged to follow instructions from local authorities.
In Jordan, Americans were warned to avoid U.S. military bases following recent missile attacks, while those in Israel were urged to identify the nearest bomb shelters and remain alert.
The U.S. Embassy in Beirut confirmed that it remains under an "ordered departure" status, with non-essential government personnel continuing to operate from outside Lebanon.
Meanwhile, Iran accused the United States of escalating tensions in the region. Iranian military officials warned that any country supporting U.S. military actions could face serious consequences, while senior Iranian officials cautioned against attacks on the country's infrastructure.
Regional security concerns have also affected maritime activities. A tanker was reportedly struck by an unidentified projectile off the coast of Oman, while commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has declined significantly due to heightened security risks.
The conflict, which intensified after military exchanges between the United States, Israel, and Iran, continues to impact regional stability, international travel, and global energy markets.
