The United States Embassy in Jerusalem has issued a safety warning advising American government personnel and their families in Israel to stay indoors, following drone and missile strikes launched by Iran against the Jewish state.

The advisory, initially announced on Saturday and reiterated on Sunday morning, follows Iranian attacks that have resulted in at least 10 fatalities and over 180 injuries in Israel. 

“Due to the present security conditions and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, the U.S. Embassy has instructed all American government employees and their family members to remain sheltered until further notice,” the embassy’s alert, shared on its website and the platform X, stated.

“Given the proximity of missile and debris impacts, the U.S. Embassy has offered employees living near the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv the option to voluntarily relocate to new accommodations further away,” the alert continued.

Israel has also made clear that strikes against Tehran are far from over, issuing a warning to the people of Iran.

“Urgent warning to all Iranian citizens: All individuals currently or soon to be present in or around military weapons production factories and their supporting institutions must immediately evacuate these areas and not return until further notice,” the Israel Defense Forces said in an alert posted in Farsi. “Your presence near these facilities puts your life at risk.”

The IDF contrasted their approach with that of Iran, which has launched attacks at civilian areas.

“This is the message we spread to Iranian citizens. While Iran chooses to strike without warning, we choose to warn a innocent [sic] people even if it means giving up the element of surprise,” the IDF posted to X Sunday morning. “We warn them, in Persian, across many channels. Because human life comes first to us. That’s the difference between us and our enemy.”
