Sign InThe U.S. State Department has coordinated the safe return of approximately 20,000 American citizens from the Middle East following the outbreak of conflict with Iran on February 28, 2026. Emergency assistance is currently being provided to citizens in Kuwait, Bahrain, the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Israel through charter flights and ground transportation. The repatriation efforts intensified following reports of an Iranian strike on Doha’s industrial district in Qatar on March 1, 2026.
