The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad urged Americans to shelter in place amid violent protests and security threats following U.S. and Israeli strikes against Iran.

It said protests, particularly near the July 14th Bridge in Baghdad, have turned violent, prompting Iraqi authorities to close the International Zone in central Baghdad with limited exceptions.
The U.S. Mission in Iraq also directed all staff to shelter in place and suspended consular operations, including routine services.
