Harf said that the embassies would be closed specifically on Sunday, with an assessment afterwards on whether to reopen them.
"It is possible we may have additional days of closing as well," she said.

Government offices are nearly always closed in the US on Sunday, which is the start of the work week in many Muslim-majority countries.
The US has been especially cautious about security since an attack on its consulate in Benghazi, Libya on September 11 last year.
The attack killed four Americans, including ambassador Chris Stevens, and led critics in Congress to accuse the state department of insufficient security.
