“If US citizens find themselves in an area of active conflict, they should leave if it is safe to do so. If they cannot leave safely, they should shelter in place,” it said.
The alert noted that flight availability into and out of Pakistan remains fluid, and US citizen travellers should check flight status with their airlines.
The alert advised that US citizens should exercise caution and leave the area if they find themselves unexpectedly in the vicinity of military activities; shelter in place if they cannot relocate; review personal security plan; monitor local media for updates; keep a low profile and be aware of surroundings and carry identification and cooperate with authorities.
Tensions between India and Pakistan increased after the Indian armed forces on Wednesday conducted precision strikes targeting terror launchpads in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in response to the April 22 Pahalgam attack that had cross-border linkages.
Pakistan launched a fresh wave of drone attacks targeting 26 locations in India — from Jammu and Kashmir to Gujarat — for the second night on Friday, with the defence ministry saying the enemy’s attempts to hit vital installations, including airports and air bases, were successfully thwarted.
