Access to telephone and internet in the Tigray region remains cut. Availability of basic services, including electricity, is spotty. Reports of interruptions to essential items, such as food, fuel, and money, persist. The U.S. Embassy is unable to contact American citizens in the region. The U.S. Embassy continues to closely track developments and to assess how these might affect relocation plans for U.S. citizens. Please note, however, that we neither guarantee that a relocation will take place, nor when that may happen. For U.S. citizens who wish to leave the region, the U.S. Embassy recommends contacting the nearest United Nations (UN) facility to inquire about the possibility of joining departing UN convoys, or to request information about safe routes out of Tigray.
