The U.S. Embassy in Bahrain urged Americans to prepare for travel disruption and security threats, including possible airspace closures, as regional tensions put U.S. travelers on alert.
Bahrain’s Defense Force separately said Sunday that its air defenses intercepted multiple Iranian aerial attacks, a development covered in EconoTimes’ earlier report on Bahrain’s interceptions.
In its Sunday alert, the embassy urged U.S. citizens to exercise “heightened vigilance.” It warned that forces affiliated with Yemen’s Houthi group posed an armed-attack risk and that U.S. government workers, facilities and businesses could be targets.
The embassy said citizen and visa services would continue and urged travelers in the region to watch for airline updates and prepare for disruptions.
