According to the US “New York Times” today quoting an internal document from the US State Department, the US State Department is preparing to allow diplomats to return to embassies in many countries in the Middle East. The personnel of these embassies were evacuated before and after the outbreak of the American-Israeli war. The report said that diplomats may return to work as early as this week, while the US side will gradually reduce emergency response measures at embassies and consulates in the region. According to reports, embassies that intend to restore higher staffing levels include US embassies in Israel, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Oman, Iraq, and Kuwait. According to the document, the first batch of diplomats returning to work will be stationed at the US Embassy in Lebanon, but the local staffing will still be less than full. The report said that the embassies in Israel, Jordan, and Oman will fully resume staffing; the initial staffing limit for missions in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Lebanon will be limited to 85%; while missions in Iraq, Kuwait, and Bahrain will be limited to 75%.
