As tensions persist between Israel and Iran, U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, has announced that efforts are underway to provide evacuation options for Americans who want to leave the region.
“For American citizens wishing to leave Israel: Register to be included on the evacuation list. We’re coordinating military, commercial, and charter flights, as well as cruise ships for evacuations. Accept a seat if it’s offered. Have family in Israel? Advise them to stay near shelters and heed the sirens!” Huckabee shared in a post on X.
Similar to recent messages, the U.S. Embassy in Israel reiterated in a June 19 security alert that all U.S. government personnel and their dependents should continue to stay sheltered.
“We will alert the U.S. citizen community if there is additional information to share regarding departure options,” the notice states. “If you are a U.S. citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident currently in Israel or the West Bank and seeking U.S. government assistance to depart, please complete this form so the Department of State can better assist you and provide you with timely updates: https://mytravel.state.gov/s/crisis-intake.”
President Donald Trump has not ruled out the possibility of American military intervention to help Israel stamp out Iranian efforts to develop nuclear weapons.
“AMERICA FIRST means many GREAT things, including the fact that, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!” he declared in a Truth Social post Monday.
