US Embassy in Jerusalem Closes Amid Escalating Conflict with Iran

As tensions between Israel and Iran escalate, the US Embassy in Jerusalem has announced temporary closures and is preparing to evacuate American citizens and nonessential diplomats from Israel. In light of recent missile strikes that have caused minor damage to the embassy, US officials, including Ambassador Mike Huckabee, are urging Americans in the region to evacuate urgently. The embassy has sent security alerts advising staff to shelter in place, and plans are underway for evacuation flights. The situation remains fluid as the conflict continues to intensify.
