BAGHDAD/WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States is preparing to evacuate its Iraqi embassy due to heightened security risks in the region, three U.S. and two Iraqi sources said on Wednesday while a U.S. official said military dependents could also leave Bahrain.
The sources did not specify which security risks had prompted the decision to evacuate and the State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
