The U.S. State Department on Tuesday added the United Arab Emirates to its growing list of countries where non-emergency government personnel and family members have been ordered to depart.
The UAE — home to major commercial hubs Dubai and Abu Dhabi — joins Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait and Qatar on the evacuation list as regional tensions escalate from the conflict with Iran.
The U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi also warned of potential militant attacks that could target tourist sites, transportation hubs and locations associated with Jewish and Israeli communities.
The move signals expanding security concerns across the Gulf as Iran’s retaliatory attacks continue.
