Americans Warned Against Saudi Arabian Travel

[Tab]

The US State Department has reiterated its travel warning against Saudi Arabia, saying that “it continues to warn American citizens to defer travel to Saudi Arabia.”

The warning, it said, is “due to targeted attacks against American citizens, resulting in deaths, injuries and kidnapping, and the continuing serious threat to their safety while in Saudi Arabia.”

The State Department’s Bureau of Consular Affairs said this in a Travel Warning. It says: “this travel warning is being updated to inform the US citizens that our Mission in Saudi Arabia remains an unaccompanied post as a result of continued security concerns.”
...
“This warning supersedes that of August 12, 2004.”
