The US government has urged all Americans to leave Lebanon immediately, following a similar warning for those in Iraq.
The US embassy in Beirut warned that the security situation in Lebanon was "volatile and unpredictable", with airstrikes, drone activity, and rocket attacks reported, particularly in the south, the Beqaa Valley, and parts of the capital.
American universities in the region have also been threatened, the embassy warned, adding that Iran and its aligned militias may target institutions in Lebanon.
The advisory follows recent developments, including a US fighter jet being shot down over Iran and strikes by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on parts of Beirut.
On Friday, the embassy in Beirut recommended that Americans should not travel to Lebanon, and those already in the country must depart while commercial flights remain available.
