Iranian forces killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq.
The regime's proxies have continued to launch countless attacks against American forces.
In addition to ordering non-emergency US staff and their families to leave Israel, the US embassy advised that other Americans may also wish to consider leaving while commercial flights are available.
A similar order was issued for non-emergency US staff to depart Lebanon earlier this week.
