US and UK governments advise citizens to immediately leave Lebanon due to regional tensions and potential conflict risk.
The US and UK governments have advised their citizens to leave Lebanon immediately, citing increasing regional tensions and the potential risk of a broader conflict. The US embassy in Beirut has urged American citizens to depart Lebanon on any available flight, even if it's not their first choice, and the UK Foreign Minister has advised British nationals to leave immediately. The US embassy advises against relying on the US government for assisted departure or evacuation, as they may not be able to leave with extended family, cannot take pets, and will be expected to reimburse the US government for transportation.
