The US Embassy in Kenya has issued a travel advisory warning American citizens of potential terror attacks along Kenya's border with Somalia, as well as rising cases of crime and kidnapping.
The advisory names Garissa, Wajir, and Mandera counties as high-risk areas for terrorist activity, urging US citizens to avoid travel to said areas due to the threat of kidnappings.
At the Coast, the embassy has warned against travel to several parts of Kilifi-especially north of Malindi-as well as Lamu and Tana River counties, except for Tsavo National Park.
The advisory also places West Pokot and Turkana counties on high alert following repeated banditry attacks.
