US embassy in Lebanon says will remain closed until further notice

The United States embassy in Beirut said Tuesday it will remain closed until further notice, as Israel continued its strikes on Lebanon in retaliation for Hezbollah's rocket launches.

"Due to ongoing regional tensions, U.S. Embassy Beirut will be closed until further notice," the embassy said on X on Tuesday, a day after it renewed its call for citizens to leave Lebanon immediately.
