美国8月4日将关闭部分使馆

2013-08-03来源:VOA

The United States will close a number of its embassies and consulates around the world on Sunday for security reasons.

The State Department did not specify which missions have been asked to close, nor the type of threat they face.  But a statment said the embassies and consulates that have been told to close are ones normally open on Sundays. That would include embassies in the Muslim world, where the work week generally is from Sunday to Thursday.

Spokeswoman Marie Harf called the move a precautionary measure.
