UK Issues Travel Warnings for Spain, Turkey, and US

The UK Foreign Office has issued updated travel guidance for British tourists heading to Spain and Turkey, focusing on safety amid rising tensions. In Spain, travelers are advised to use the ALERT COPS app, which allows discreet communication with police in case of crime, and to be vigilant about street crime. Meanwhile, in Turkey, urgent warnings have been issued following violent protests sparked by the arrest of Istanbul's mayor, a key political rival of President Erdogan. The Foreign Office advises avoiding demonstrations, monitoring local news, and staying away from the Turkey-Syria border. Additionally, British travelers to the US face potential detention under new 'enhanced vetting' procedures by border officials, contributing to a downturn in tourism to the country.
