U.S. Continues Travel Warning For Sudan
Matthew Borghese - All Headline News Staff Writer Washington, D.C. (AHN) - The U.S. Department of State has updated its travel warning for Sudan, citing a "continued threat of terrorism" as the main reasons Americans should steer clear of the country. According to the warning, Americans should cancel all travel to Sudan "particularly in the Darfur area where there is a continuing buildup of Government and rebel military forces and where violence has increased significantly." "The U.S. Government has received indications of terrorist threats aimed at American and Western interests in Sudan. Terrorist actions may include suicide operations, bombings, or kidnappings." The State Department explains, "sporadic fighting instigated by militias is often reported in the southern parts of the country. Travel outside of the capital city of Khartoum is potentially dangerous. Threats have been made against foreigners working in the oil industry in Upper Nile state."
