5m ·BREAKING: The U.S. State Department has issued a Worldwide Caution alert, advising Americans across the globe to exercise increased caution amid heightened tensions in the Middle East.
In the alert, the State Department warns that the security environment remains “complex” with the potential for unforeseen escalation. It says U.S. diplomatic facilities—including some outside the Middle East—have been targeted and cautions that groups supportive of Iran “may target other U.S. interests overseas or locations associated with the United States and/or Americans throughout the world.”
The advisory also warns that flight cancellations and periodic airspace closures could disrupt travel and urges Americans abroad to follow security guidance from their nearest U.S. embassy or consulate and monitor official travel alerts for updates.
