WASHINGTON – The State Division is getting ready to order the departure of all nonessential personnel from the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad as a result of potential for regional unrest, two U.S. officers mentioned Wednesday.
The Baghdad embassy has already been on restricted staffing, and the order is not going to have an effect on numerous personnel, however the division is also authorizing the departure of nonessential personnel and members of the family from Bahrain and Kuwait.
That offers them an choice on whether or not to go away the nation.
The Pentagon is standing by to help a possible evacuation of U.S. personnel from U.S. Embassy Baghdad, one other U.S. official mentioned.
The officers spoke on situation of anonymity to element plans that haven’t been made public.
