Security Alert: U.S. Embassy Jerusalem (January 6, 2020)
Home / Blog / Security Alert: U.S. Embassy Jerusalem (January 6, 2020)

Location: Israel, Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza
Event: Heightened Middle East Tensions
Heightened tension in the Middle East may result in security risks to U.S. citizens abroad.
Out of an abundance of caution, the Embassy strongly encourages U.S. citizens to remain vigilant and take appropriate steps to increase their security awareness, as security incidents, including rocket fire, often take place without warning.
In the event of mortar or rocket fire, a red alert siren may be activated. Treat all such alerts as real; follow the instructions from local authorities and seek shelter immediately. Know the location of your closest shelter or protected space. U.S. government personnel and their family members may be restricted from traveling to areas affected by rocket activity, sirens, or the opening of bomb shelters. For additional information on appropriate action to take upon hearing a siren or explosion, see the Israel Defense Forces Home Front Command website (link only available on devices within Israel) or view the Preparedness Information PDF. U.S. citizens may also wish to download the free Israel Defense Forces Home Front Command application on Android or Apple devices to receive real-time security and safety alerts. Free commercial applications, such as Red Alert: Israel, are also available.
The Embassy will continue to review the security situation and will provide additional information as needed.

Tuesday 10PM EST here in the USA is just before Wednesday morning dawn in Iran, the soonest likely possibility of hostile events against us after the big funeral there.

BREAKING: Britain has reduced staff at its embassies in Iran and Iraq to a minimum level amid security concerns after the killing of top Iranian general Qasem Soleimani in a US airstrike, @SkyNews understands 1/

The withdrawal of the UK diplomats from Iran & Iraq is a precautionary step rather than based on specific intelligence of a threat, according to diplomatic sources. The respective ambassadors – Rob Macaire in Tehran and Stephen Hickey in Baghdad – will remain in place 2/

I've been trying to place an order with Riogrande for over an hour, the pages are timing out and it's not because they're having a sale either. It took me three hours to place an order with Grizzly last night.

This illustrates that everyone knows that Iran does not honor diplomatic immunity
