The US embassy tells US citizens to depart immediately due to heightened tensions in Iraq.
Reuters:
The United States embassy in Baghdad urged on Friday all citizens to depart Iraq immediately, hours after the U.S. killed Iranian Quds Force leader Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in an air strike.
“Due to heightened tensions in Iraq and the region, the U.S. Embassy urges American citizens to heed the January 2020 Travel Advisory and depart Iraq immediately. U.S. citizens should depart via airline while possible, and failing that, to other countries via land,” it said in a statement.
DOD: Soleimani “actively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq”
Trump’s response to Iran bombing is pure Americana
FLASHBACK: Obama Strikes a Deal With Qassem Suleimani
Scalise: President Trump “took incredibly decisive action” to take out Soleimani
Liz Cheney: Trump “was right to order decisive action to kill Soleimani”
At the very least this signals that the US is preparing for Iran to do something in retaliation.
