Washington D.C. / 11.1.18 / Turan: In connection with the threat of terrorism, certain risks have increased in Azerbaijan. This is stated in the recommendations of the US Department of State to American citizens visiting Azerbaijan.
Terrorist groups continue plotting possible attacks in Azerbaijan. Terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, transportation hubs, markets/shopping malls, local government facilities, hotels, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, parks, major sporting and cultural events, educational institutions, airports, and other public areas.
In addition, the State Department recommended the US citizens not to visit Nagorno-Karabakh and the territories adjacent to the front line. -16D-
