Tel Aviv: The US Embassy in Israel will remain closed due to ongoing security concerns following Iranian missile strikes, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee announced on Monday. 'Our US Embassy in Israel and Consulate will officially remain closed today as shelter in place still in effect,' Huckabee said on X.

According to Anadolu Agency, while the "Embassy Branch in Tel Aviv" sustained minor "damage from the concussions of nearby missile" impacts, there were no injuries reported among US personnel. The latest escalation between Israel and Iran follows Israeli strikes Friday on Iranian nuclear and missile facilities that killed military commanders and scientists, prompting Iran to retaliate with ballistic missiles that caused Israeli casualties and property damage.
