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.
