The State Department released a worldwide caution security alert advising U.S. citizens to exercise increased caution while travelling abroad. The U.S. Embassy in Qatar issued a security alert for American citizens to shelter in place until further notice. The U.S. Embassy Jerusalem is still directing U.S. government employees and their families to continue to shelter in place but is providing limited passport services and currently assisting with departures.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The U.S. Embassy is not endorsing third party providers assisting U.S. citizens in departing Israel, but there have been successful evacuations via this route. U.S. citizens can also check local media for commercial opportunities to depart Israel by ship.
