We continue to advise do not travel to Yemen, including the island of Socotra. There’s ongoing armed conflict and a very high threat of kidnapping and terrorism. Military operations against Houthi targets are continuing in Yemen and the Red Sea area.

The volatile situation in Lebanon, Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories could lead to increased tensions in other locations in the Middle East. Demonstrations and protest activity may also occur, and local security situations could deteriorate with little notice. Avoid all demonstrations and protests. Conflicts in the Middle East may also result in airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel disruptions across the region (see ‘Safety’).

We continue to advise:

Do not travel to Yemen (including the island of Socotra) due to the dangerous security situation and the threat of armed conflict, kidnapping and terrorism.
