U.S. government issues urgent alert: Americans in Iraq must evacuate immediately due to Iran-backed militias threat of attacks in central Baghdad within the next 24-48 hours. The warning comes after freelance journalist Shelly Renee Kittlesons kidnapping by Kataib Hezbollah, one of the militias. The U.S. Embassy and consulate in Iraq are operating with minimal staff, and a Level four do not travel advisory is in effect. Airspace is closed, so Americans must leave via land borders to Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, or Turkey, expecting long waits and changing rules.
