U.S. Urges Citizens to Leave Syria Amid Volatile Security, Israeli Airstrikes
Dec 16, 2024, 09:33 AM
The U.S. State Department has issued an urgent advisory for American citizens in Syria to leave the country immediately due to the volatile and unpredictable security situation marked by ongoing armed conflict and terrorism. The advisory, posted by the U.S. Embassy in Damascus, which has been closed since 2012, emphasizes that U.S. citizens should depart if possible. Those unable to leave are advised to prepare contingency plans for emergency situations and be ready to shelter in place for extended periods. The statement also notes that the U.S. government is unable to provide routine or emergency consular services to its citizens in Syria, urging those needing emergency assistance to contact the U.S. Embassy in the country they plan to enter. This call for evacuation comes in the wake of recent Israeli airstrikes in Syria, which have further destabilized the region.
