Eritrea
The U.S. State Department announced that it is suspending all consular and diplomatic services at its embassy in Asmara, Eritrea's capital, and will now provide only emergency services for Americans. Ties between the countries have deteriorated due to what Eritrea views as the U.S. backing of Ethiopia's recent military strike within Eritrean territory. Citizens traveling to or residing in Eritrea are advised to register with the embassy online for any emergency assistance that may be required.
