The US embassy in Jerusalem issues a security warning telling its employees and their families “to shelter in place until further notice.”

The warning, similar to that issued in April ahead of an Iranian attack, comes amid indications from US intelligence that Tehran is planning to launch another ballistic missile attack on Israel.
