The embassy's statement noted that missile and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) attacks targeting cities, airports, military facilities, and energy infrastructure in Saudi Arabia are continuing.
British citizens were urged to follow the instructions of British officials and local authorities. The statement also requested that citizens refrain from sharing any information regarding conflicts, recording footage, or sharing any footage that has been recorded.
British citizens were advised to learn the locations of safe points and shelters near their current locations in advance, and to remain indoors or proceed to the nearest designated safe point if instructed to move to a secure location.
