Ираны хариу цохилтын улмаас АНУ-ын цэргийн алба хаагчид амь үрэгдсэний дараа АНУ-ын Төрийн департамент дэлхий даяар аюулгүй байдлын түгшүүр зарлаж, иргэдээ сонор сэрэмжтэй байхыг уриалав.
АНУ-ын Төрийн департамент Ойрхи Дорнод дахь хурцадмал байдал болон цаашид нөхцөл байдал урьдчилан таамаглах боломжгүйгээр хүндрэх эрсдэлтэй байгааг анхаарууллаа. Үүнтэй холбогдуулан гадаадад зорчиж буй АНУ-ын иргэдийг орон нутгийн элчин сайдын яам, консулын газрын зааварчилгааг дагаж, аюулгүй байдлаа хангахыг зөвлөв. Мөн олон улсын нислэгийн хуваарьт өөрчлөлт орох, агаарын орон зай хаагдах зэрэг хүндрэлүүд үүсэж болзошгүйг мэдээлэлд онцолжээ.
АНУ-ын Зэвсэгт хүчний төв командлал (CENTCOM) баасан гарагт Иордан улсад болсон Ираны баллистик пуужин болон дроны халдлагын үеэр АНУ-ын хоёр цэргийн алба хаагч амь үрэгдсэнийг баталсан юм. Хоёрдугаар сард АНУ болон Израйлийн Ираны эсрэг эхлүүлсэн ажиллагаа хойш албан ёсоор 16 америк цэрэг амь үрэгдээд байна. Иран улс Кувейт, Бахрейн, Катар, Оман, Ирак, Сири зэрэг улсуудад байрлах АНУ-ын цэргийн байгууламжууд руу ойр ойрхон пуужин болон дроны цохилт өгч байна.
АНУ-ын Ерөнхийлөгч Дональд Трамп цэргүүдийн амь үрэгдсэн явдалд харамсаж буйгаа илэрхийлээд, Иран улсыг цөмийн зэвсэгтэй болохыг хэзээ ч зөвшөөрөхгүй гэдгээ дахин мэдэгдэв. Ираны Эрүүл мэндийн яамны мэдээлснээр, зургаадугаар сарын 27-ноос долдугаар сарын 18-ны хооронд АНУ-ын хийсэн цохилтын улмаас 50 хүн амь үрэгдэж, 500 гаруй хүн шархаджээ. Ираны дээд удирдагч Можтаба Хаменеи АНУ-ын цохилтуудын хариуд цаашид ч хариу арга хэмжээ авах болно гэж анхааруулсан байна.

The State Department has cautioned about potential “unforeseen escalation” after Iranian retaliatory strikes killed American troops
The US State Department has issued a worldwide security warning urging Americans to exercise increased caution amid fears of further escalation in Washington’s renewed war with Iran.
“Due to heightened tensions in the Middle East, the security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation,” the department said on Saturday, advising US citizens worldwide – and particularly those in the region – to monitor breaking developments and follow instructions issued by the nearest American embassy or consulate.
The warning noted that flight cancellations and periodic airspace closures could cause travel disruptions. It also said that US diplomatic facilities had been targeted, including those outside the Middle East, and warned that groups supportive of Iran could attack “other US interests overseas or locations associated with the United States and/or Americans throughout the world.”
The alert came hours after US Central Command confirmed that two American service members had been killed in Jordan on Friday as US and allied forces defended against Iranian ballistic missiles and drones. The deaths brought the total number of officially confirmed American fatalities since the US-Israeli war against Iran began in February to 16.
US President Donald Trump offered only a brief response when asked about the deaths.
“It’s very sad, it’s a very sad thing. We hate to see it happen. It’s in service to our country,” he said, before reiterating that Washington would “never” allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon.
CENTCOM was unusually quiet about US offensive operations on Saturday evening. For the previous week, it had announced a new round of strikes against Iran every night, culminating in what it described as a seventh consecutive night of attacks early on Saturday. By late Saturday, however, its only new public release concerned the troops killed and missing in Jordan, with no announcement of an eighth night of bombing.
Iran has carried out near-daily retaliatory missile and drone attacks on US military facilities across the Middle East since Washington resumed large-scale strikes earlier this month. Tehran has targeted bases and other American-linked facilities in Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman, as well as in Iraq and Syria.
Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned that more retaliatory strikes would follow, after Tehran repeatedly threatened that the “entire region will pay the price” for US attacks on civilian infrastructure in Iran.
The Iranian Health Ministry said on Saturday that US strikes between June 27 and July 18 had killed 50 people, including women and children, and injured more than 500. An estimated 3,500 Iranians were killed in the first round of attacks launched in February, while Israeli operations in Lebanon reportedly claimed another 4,300 lives.
