Summary
Countrywide reports of missiles, drones or rockets in Jordanian airspace prompted the U.S. Embassy in Amman to tell people to seek overhead cover and shelter in place immediately.
The alert told residents and travelers to remain indoors, monitor local announcements and media, and stay vigilant as the embassy said it was reviewing the situation and would issue updates as needed.
Flights could be affected, the embassy said, urging travelers to contact airlines directly for changes.
The notice also directed people in immediate danger to call Jordanian police at 911 and pointed U.S. citizens to embassy and State Department emergency contacts.
