Supplemental Info:
Alert: Reminder to Remain Alert to Security Developments
and Avoid Demonstrations
The U.S. Embassy wishes to remind U.S. citizens in Egypt of existing security guidance in light of the situation in Gaza. U.S. citizens are urged to remain alert to local security developments and be vigilant at all times throughout the country. As a matter of general practice, U.S. citizens should avoid areas where large gatherings may occur. Even demonstrations or events intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence. U.S. citizens in Egypt are urged to monitor local news reports and plan their activities accordingly. For the latest security information, U.S. citizens traveling abroad should regularly monitor the Department of State’s website travel.state.gov where country specific information as well as travel advisories and alerts can be found. U.S. citizens are advised to maintain valid travel documents and enroll with the Department of State or U.S. Embassy Cairo through the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program or STEP. If you enroll, we can keep you up to date with important safety and security announcements and can also help your family and friends get in touch with you in an emergency.
