The United States has ordered non-essential employees to leave its embassy in the Iraqi capital Baghdad.
A State Department official said the decision was made after evaluating regional tensions. It comes as talks between the US and Iran over Tehran’s nuclear program appear to be faltering.

The embassy in Baghdad advised American citizens against travelling to Iraq, after President Trump said personnel were being moved out of the Middle East.
