I was there for 5 nights last autumn and had a very nice time and thought the place had moved on from conflict.
Then reading the news 2 weeks later the was unrest in the streets where I was and 16 people were shot.
There is always the chance of things flaring up and nutter kidnappings are not only for religious and political reasons, there is just the criminal element jumping on the bandwagon.
The key is secure transport and good backup with insurance for all risks.
Keep safe out there.
