[U.S. Clarifies 'Plan to Order Partial Evacuation of Embassy Personnel in Gulf Region': Limited to Saudi Arabia] Reported by Golden Finance, on October 22, a U.S. State Department spokesperson addressed reports about the 'plan to order partial evacuation of embassy personnel in the Gulf region,' stating that the information is inaccurate. The evacuation order applies only to non-emergency U.S. government employees and their families within Saudi Arabia. The Houthi forces have increasingly taken hostile actions against Saudi Arabia, including attacks on civilian airports and other critical infrastructure, resulting in civilian casualties and severe travel disruptions. The safety and security of State Department personnel and their families remain the highest priority for the U.S., and all necessary measures will continue to be taken to protect and support them.
