The US is set to suspend activity at embassies across the Middle East in response to an unspecified security threat.
Calling an emergency press conference, the US State Department said yesterday it was going to shut down embassies that would ordinarily be open this Sunday 4 August, because of security considerations.
While many consulate buildings across the world do not open their doors to the public on a Sunday anyway, it is an ordinary day of work in most Muslim countries and as such the embassies open as well.
