Kuwait
Travel Warning
This public announcement is being updated
to alert Americans to ongoing security concerns in Kuwait. U.S. citizens are
reminded to maintain a high level of vigilance and to take appropriate steps to increase
their security awareness. This public announcement supersedes the public
announcement for Kuwait issued January 28, 2005 and expires on January 26, 2006.
The Department continues to remind all U.S.
citizens in Kuwait to exercise caution, maintain a low profile, and avoid areas where
westerners are known to congregate. Heightened security awareness should be
exercised in all residential complexes, as terrorists have specifically targeted a variety
of Western housing facilities in the past. Military members, as well as civilians
and contractors related to military interests, are also possible targets.

Terrorists do not distinguish between
official and civilian targets. Terrorist actions may include bombings, hijackings,
hostage taking, kidnappings and assassinations. Increased security at official U.S.
facilities may lead terrorists and their sympathizers to seek softer targets such as
public transportation, residential areas and apartment complexes, oil-related facilities
and personnel, and public areas where people congregate including restaurants, hotels,
clubs, and shopping areas. U.S. citizens are advised to immediately report any
unusual or suspicious activity in Kuwait to the Kuwaiti police or to the U.S. Embassy.
