US orders non-emergency staff to leave Saudi Arabia over security risks — West Fargo Community news

Oct 30 (Reuters) The United States ordered non-emergency government employees and ​their family members ‌to leave Saudi Arabia effective October 23 due to safety risks, the US ‌embassy ​in Riyadh ⁠said on Friday, ⁠citing Houthi attacks on civilian airports and other critical infrastructure. US government ​employees require special authorisation to use ⁠Saudi airports following ⁠recent missile and ​drone attacks, the embassy ​said, warning US citizens ‌of potential further attacks, airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel ⁠disruptions. The fighting between Yemen s Iran-aligned Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition ⁠backing ‌Yemen s government ⁠has intensified in recent ​weeks, ‌opening a volatile ​new ⁠front in the wider US-Israeli war on Iran.
