Europe - Terrorism Issued 10/03/2010 - Expires January 31, 2011
The State Department alerts U.S. citizens to the potential for terrorist attacks in Europe. Current information suggests that al-Qa'ida and affiliated organizations continue to plan terrorist attacks. European governments have taken action to guard against a terrorist attack and some have spoken publicly about the heightened threat conditions. Terrorists may elect to use a variety of means and weapons and target both official and private interests. U.S. citizens are reminded of the potential for terrorists to attack public transportation systems and other tourist infrastructure. Terrorists have targeted and attacked subway and rail systems, as well as aviation and maritime services. U.S. citizens should take every precaution to be aware of their surroundings and to adopt appropriate safety measures to protect themselves when traveling.
India Issued 9/1/2010 - Expires November 15, 2010
The U.S. Mission in India alerts U.S. citizens traveling to or residing in India to safety and security issues related to the 2010 Commonwealth Games scheduled to be held in New Delhi, India, between October 3 and October 14, 2010, especially in light of the Worldwide Caution issued by the Department of State on August 12, 2010, regarding the continuing threat of terrorist actions and violence against U.S. citizens and interests throughout the world.
Bolivia Issued 8/12/2010 - Expires November 12, 2010
This Travel Alert is being issued to alert U.S. citizens to unstable social and security situations in several regions of Bolivia. Over the past three weeks, civic groups and other factions in the regions of Potosi, Oruro, and Uyuni have staged protests against the Bolivian government over a border dispute and accusations that the government has failed to follow through on development projects in their regions. Protesters have erected roadblocks along major intra-city routes, obstructing travel to and from these regions. Thousands of people, including several hundred tourists, have been trapped by the roadblocks for as long as 16 days. Food, water, and medical supplies in these regions are limited and looting is considered likely. Protesters, using dynamite and hunger strikes to call attention to their requests, have threatened to extend the blockades and demonstrations to the city of La Paz, if their demands are not met. The State Department urges U.S. citizens in Bolivia to avoid making travel arrangements to Potosi, Oruro, or Uyuni until the situation is resolved. U.S. citizens in those regions should maintain a low profile and limit their movement until the situation subsides.
Kenya Issued 7/22/2010 - Expires October 22, 2010
This Travel Alert is being issued to alert U.S. citizens in Kenya to two independent security concerns. In the wake of the July 11, 2010 terrorist bombings in Kampala, Uganda, there have been increased threats made against public areas in Kenya. In addition, there is concern about the potential for civil disturbances surrounding the August 4 constitutional referendum in Kenya. The U.S. Embassy urges caution when visiting public areas, including restaurants and shopping centers, and asks U.S. citizens to make every effort to avoid public rallies and demonstrations. The U.S. Embassy continues to urge U.S. citizens in Kenya and those considering travel to Kenya to evaluate their personal security situation in light of continuing threats from terrorism and the high rate of violent crime. This Travel Alert is in addition to the March 16, 2010 Travel Warning and does not supersede it.
