FCO Iraq and Egypt - foreign office amends travel advice
Thursday, October 14, 2004
The Travel Advice for Iraq now reads:
`There is a direct threat of kidnap to foreign nationals in northern Iraq and we believe that British nationals may be targeted.`
`There continue to be widespread outbreaks of violence and threats to kidnap British and other foreign nationals .`
`It is likely that there will be an increase in the number of attacks during Ramadan (15 October to 14 November).`
The Travel Advice for Egypt now reads:
The threat from terrorism in Egypt remains. The threat from terrorism on the east coast of the Sinai peninsula is high. Following terrorist attacks in Taba and Ras Shaitan near Nuweiba on 7 October, our assessment is that further terrorist attacks may be likely. We will be keeping this advice under close review.
Full details of the FCO Travel Advice for Iraq and Egypt are available on the Foreign Office website.
