Security Alert

U.S. Embassy Jerusalem

March 22, 2025


Location:  Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza

Event:  Security Alert


Due to the current evolving security situation, including the resumption of red alerts and large-scale demonstrations, the U.S. Embassy reminds U.S. citizens of the continued need for caution and increased personal security awareness – including avoiding large gatherings and demonstrations, and knowing the location of the nearest shelter in the event of a red alert as security incidents, including mortar, rocket, and missile fire, and unmanned aircraft system (UAS) intrusions, often take place without any warning. The security environment is complex and can change quickly.


Actions to Take:


  • Refer to our website for the latest Security Alerts: https://il.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/security-and-travel-information/.

  • Be aware of your surroundings.

  • Avoid all demonstrations and large gatherings.

  • Avoid all areas where there is a heavy police presence.

  • Monitor local media.

  • Follow the instructions of local authorities.

  • Enroll in the Department of State’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP). STEP enrollment gives you the latest security updates and makes it easier for the U.S. Embassy to contact you in an emergency.


Regularly monitor the State Department’s website, where you can find current Travel Advisories (including the Travel Advisory for Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza) and the Worldwide Caution. Read the Country Information for Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. For additional information, refer to “Traveler’s Checklist” on the State Department’s website
