Amid heightened threats from Iran-aligned militias in Iraq, the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad issued urgent security alerts on April 2 and April 8, 2026, warning of potential attacks on U.S. targets within 24-48 hours and advising all American citizens to depart immediately due to risks from missiles, drones, and rockets in Iraqi airspace. The embassy remains operational under an ordered departure status for non-essential personnel since early March, following similar alerts, with no full evacuation announced despite reports of militia plotting and a tense interception near the compound. Ongoing regional tensions, including prior embassy strikes in mid-March, sustain trader caution, while diplomatic channels and Iraqi government responses could influence escalation or de-escalation ahead of the market's resolution window.
