The US Department of State has warned American citizens against travelling to Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Syria and Yemen, citing security concerns and limitations on its ability to provide consular services.
Al Jazeera reported early Tuesday, November 10, that the US Department of State had urged Americans not to travel to these countries under any circumstances.
According to the report, the department said all six countries remain at the highest travel advisory level (Level 4), which advises American citizens not to travel to these destinations under any circumstances.
The advisory states: “We designate Level 4 based on local conditions or our limited ability to assist Americans in those areas.”
Meanwhile, the US Department of State has also included Afghanistan, Russia, Ukraine, Sudan, and South Sudan among the 23 countries currently subject to its highest level of travel advisory.
