There’s been increased terrorist activity in the departments of Cauca and Valle de Cauca, including in the city of Cali and the municipalities of Jaumundí and Palmira. The situation continues to be unstable. If there’s an attack, leave the area as soon as it’s safe. Avoid the area in case of further attacks.
We continue to advise do not travel to most of Cauca and reconsider your need to travel to most of Valle de Cauca. We also advise do not travel or reconsider your need to travel to several other areas of Colombia due to high risks of terrorism, crime and civil unrest. We advise exercise a high degree of caution for Colombia overall. You should read our full advice carefully for more detail on these areas (see ‘Safety’).
We advise:
Exercise a high degree of caution in Colombia overall due to the threat of violent crime and terrorism.
Higher levels apply in some areas.
