‘Reconsider Travel To Pakistan More Broadly’: US Issues Advisory For Citizens

<p>The US has restricted the movement of personnel in Pakistan until further notice. The advisory came after the Pakistan Army advised all residents of Pakistan to remain in their homes until further notice. The U.S. Mission to Pakistan said it will reassess this afternoon.</p>
<p>”The US Department of State continues to remind US citizens of its standing ‘Do Not Travel’ advisory against all travel to areas near the India-Pakistan border and the Line of Control due to terrorism and the potential for armed conflict. &nbsp;The Department&rsquo;s long-standing ‘Reconsider Travel’ advisory also urges travellers to reconsider travel to Pakistan more broadly,” the advisory read</p>
<p>”If US citizens find themselves in an area of active conflict, they should leave if it is safe to do so. &nbsp;If they cannot leave safely, they should shelter in place. Flight availability into and out of Pakistan remains fluid. US citizen travellers can check flight status with their airlines,” the advisory read.</p>
<p>The advisory comes after India thwarted Pakistani attacks on 26 locations. The locations along the International Border and Line of Control with Pakistan, which were attacked last night, include Baramulla, Srinagar, Awantipora, Nagrota, Jammu, Ferozpur, Pathankot, Fazilka, Lalgarh Jatta, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Bhuj, Kuarbet, and Lakhi Nala.</p>
<p>India reportedly also took out a Fatah-2 missile launched by Pakistan over Hisar, Haryana.</p>
