The US Defense Department has flown about 120 personnel out of the Zionist entity as a precaution in light of the ongoing fighting between the Israeli occupation and Palestinian Resistance.
That’s according to Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby, who said the American personnel departed on Thursday on a US Air Force C-17 transport plane.
Kirby said the conference was scheduled to end this week but the exit was accelerated by a few days.
Meanwhile, US State Department advised Americans to reconsider any travel they may have planned to the Zionist entity and Palestine.
In a notice issued Thursday, the department raised its travel advisory for the Zionist entity, the West Bank and Gaza to Level 3 — “reconsider travel.” It had previously been at Level 2, which recommends travelers “exercise increased caution.”
The revised alert cited continuing rocket fire from Gaza into areas across the occupied territories.
“Protests and violence may continue to occur, some with little or no warning,” it said.
