US Updates Severe Travel Warning for Haiti

News summary

The U.S. Department of State has reissued its Level 4 'Do Not Travel' advisory for Haiti, with the July 15 update specifically designating gangs as terrorist organizations and warning of escalating terrorist violence, rampant kidnapping, and civil unrest. Emergency assistance from the U.S. government is extremely limited, and the security situation has led to periodic closures of Haiti's main airport and suspension of cruise line visits, including by Royal Caribbean. Egypt is now under a Level 2 'Exercise Increased Caution' advisory due to terrorism, crime, and health risks, with Northern Sinai and the Western Desert strictly off-limits. Nigeria and Mauritania have Level 3 'Reconsider Travel' warnings because of violent crime, terrorism, unreliable healthcare, and poor infrastructure, particularly outside capital cities. U.S. authorities emphasize that travelers should consult current advisories before planning any trips to these countries. Travelers are strongly urged to reconsider or avoid travel to these destinations due to severe ongoing safety threats.
