U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee is accused of making an inappropriate sex joke in a memo to staff sheltering from war. The memo, obtained by The Washington Post, reportedly joked about staff having children due to extended time together and suggested naming them after him. A U.S. official described the message as "awkward" and "odd." Americans in Israel are advised to shelter in place as the U.S. conflict with Iran widens regionally, with the embassy unable to guarantee safety for those attempting to depart.
