The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem will not operate until at least June 20 amid the security situation due to Iranian shelling.

"Given the security situation and in accordance with the instructions of the Israeli Home Front Service, the US Embassy in Jerusalem will be closed from tomorrow (Wednesday, June 18) to Friday (June 20). This applies to the consular sections in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv," the statement said.
The diplomatic mission noted that at this time it has no information about the need to assist Americans in leaving Israel.
