The US Embassy is issuing a critical alert: Iran has escalated military actions with fresh retaliatory strikes across the Gulf region targeting Bahrain. Air raid sirens have been activated. If you hear sirens or explosions, seek cover immediately on the lowest floor of a sturdy building away from windows and remain sheltered until the all-clear is given by authorities. Avoid any debris after strikes; do not attempt to inspect damage. Keep a charged phone and travel documents ready at all times, maintain contact with the Embassy, and follow all local authority and Embassy guidance.
