Bolivia
Jun 22, 2026
Bolivia Travel Advisory
Bolivia has declared a 90-day state of emergency due to widespread anti-government roadblocks that have paralyzed the nation for over six weeks, leading to shortages of fuel, food, and medicine. The government is deploying security forces to clear these roadblocks, which may result in violence. Travel to Chapare Province is strongly advised against due to high crime rates linked to drug trafficking. Road travel between cities is not recommended, and access to popular tourist destinations may be disrupted.
Israel
Jun 18, 2026
Israel Travel Advisory
Due to ongoing military activities and a volatile security situation, avoid all travel to Israel. There is a risk of rocket and drone attacks throughout the country, with potential for shrapnel from intercepted missiles. Border areas with Gaza and Lebanon are particularly dangerous. Flight operations may be suspended, and border crossings could close without notice.
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Jun 04, 2026
Democratic Republic of the Congo Travel Advisory
Do not travel to the Democratic Republic of the Congo due to crime, unrest, terrorism, kidnapping, and health concerns, including an Ebola outbreak. Armed groups and military forces are in conflict, frequently targeting civilians. Violent crime, including murder, rape, and kidnapping, is prevalent, especially in eastern provinces. Demonstrations can turn violent, and there is a risk of terrorist attacks.
Yemen
Jun 04, 2026
Yemen Travel Advisory
Travel to Yemen is strongly advised against due to severe risks including terrorism, ongoing armed conflict, widespread crime, health hazards, and the presence of landmines. Foreigners are frequent targets for kidnapping and carjacking, particularly outside urban centers. The U.S. Embassy in Sana'a has suspended operations, and the U.S. government cannot provide consular services to citizens in Yemen. Regional tensions also pose a threat to maritime travel in surrounding waters.
South Sudan
Jun 03, 2026
South Sudan Travel Advisory
Travel to South Sudan is strongly advised against due to a volatile security situation characterized by armed conflicts, inter-ethnic violence, and high levels of violent crime, including carjackings, shootings, assaults, robberies, and kidnappings. The U.S. government has limited ability to provide emergency consular services, and U.S. government personnel operate under strict curfews and use armored vehicles. Poor road conditions and unauthorized checkpoints outside Juba make overland travel extremely dangerous, with risks of ambushes and roadside crime. Landmines also pose a significant threat throughout the country.
Kuwait
May 28, 2026
Kuwait Travel Advisory
Kuwait is experiencing a volatile security situation due to ongoing military activities and regional tensions, including drone and missile strikes that have damaged Kuwait International Airport and led to repeated airspace closures. Several governments are advising against all travel due to these risks, which include potential for further deterioration of the security situation, disruptions to commercial flights, and a threat of terrorism. Travelers should be aware of potential crime, especially in certain neighborhoods, and unexploded ordnance in desert areas near the Iraqi border.
