United States getting extremely concerned about growing conflict in Gaza, Palestine

The United States is becoming increasingly concerned about the Israel-Hamas conflict potentially escalating into a two-front war with Hezbollah’s involvement. The Biden administration is preparing for the worst-case scenario of evacuating hundreds of thousands of American citizens from the Middle East if the violence in Gaza continues.

There are approximately 600,000 U.S. citizens in Israel and 86,000 in Lebanon. This evacuation plan is being considered a “worst-case scenario,” and the focus is on logistics. The main source of concern for the U.S. government is Hezbollah, which has been launching attacks on Israel from the north.

While these emergency plans were not publicly discussed previously to avoid causing panic among Americans in the region, the tone has changed due to increasing concerns. Experts point out that this evacuation could be more complex than recent operations, and U.S. Air Force planes or navy warships in the region may play a role in the operation.

The U.S. State Department has issued warnings to U.S. citizens worldwide to be more cautious due to rising tensions, the potential for terrorist attacks, and anti-U.S. demonstrations.

The Pentagon is also taking measures to protect U.S. personnel, recognizing the possibility of wider tensions in the coming days. The situation is being closely monitored, and the U.S. administration remains deeply concerned about the evolving conflict and its potential impact on American citizens in the region.
