Terrorism
We judge that there is a high threat from terrorism against western, including British, targets.
We are particularly concerned about potential threats to places where westerners might gather.

Recent attacks in the Middle East confirm a continuing security threat throughout the region. Military actions continue in Iraq, and the situation remains hazardous and unpredictable. Random and indiscriminate terrorist acts in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, in addition to ongoing military operations, pose major risks. Moreover, large-scale attacks in Syria and Saudi Arabia, plus a thwarted chemical bomb attack in Jordan, further demonstrate that the security situation can deteriorate rapidly without notice. There is a high probability of future attacks occurring anywhere in the region without warning.

Canadians travelling or residing in the Middle East should maintain a high level of personal security awareness at all times, especially in commercial and public areas frequented by foreigners. They should also monitor local developments, avoid crowds and demonstrations, and register and remain in contact with the nearest Canadian embassy or consulate or Foreign Affairs Canada (call collect 613-996-8885).

This Advice is current for Monday, 05 July 2004, EST
The Advice was issued on Tuesday, 22 June 2004, 17:09:20, EST
This advice has been reviewed and reissued with new Safety and Security information. The overall level of the advice has not changed.
Australians in Bahrain should exercise a high degree of caution and monitor developments that might affect their safety. There are ongoing tensions in the Middle East and the risk of possible terrorist attacks against Western interests remains. Particular care should be exercised in commercial and public areas known to be frequented by foreigners.
Australian travellers should be aware of the increased threat of terrorism globally and should consult the General Advice to Australian.
