Travel warnings have been issued due to various safety concerns. Crime, terrorism, health concerns, unrest, kidnapping, and landmines are among the reasons cited. The situation is considered severe enough that emergency services cannot be provided to citizens in need.

Routine consular services are available, but must be obtained from a nearby embassy. Clashes among armed groups can occur at any time, and weapons are plentiful.

Further details are available from the travel advisory, which provides more information on the safety risks and restrictions in place. Citizens are advised to read the entire advisory for more information.
