**Amid heightened threats from Iran-aligned militia groups in Iraq, the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad has faced multiple attacks since early March 2026, including a missile strike on its helipad causing fire and damage on March 14, followed by drone interceptions near the compound and airport in early April.** The State Department ordered non-emergency U.S. government employees and families to depart on March 2 and 9, with reports of rapid staff evacuations and U.S./NATO withdrawal from Baghdad's Joint Operations Command by mid-March. Security alerts persisted through April 8, warning of imminent assaults in central Baghdad, yet the embassy remains open on ordered departure amid the U.S.-Iran regional escalation. Traders weigh risks of further militia strikes or U.S. military responses against historical resilience of fortified embassy operations.
