\"\"<\/p>\n

The US Embassy has placed its citizens in Dominica and the rest of the Eastern Caribbean on a security alert because of what they describe as heightened tensions in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

According to a release from the U.S. Embassy in Bridgetown, the tension in the Middle East may result in security risks to U.S. citizens abroad.<\/p>\n

They are encouraging their citizens to keep a low profile, be aware of their surroundings, stay alert in locations frequented by tourists, review personal security plans and have travel documents up to date and easily accessible.<\/p>\n

The Embassy says it will continue to review the security situation and will provide additional information as needed.<\/p>\n
