The U.S. State Department issued travel advisory updates for Turkey and Azerbaijan this week, warning that U.S. travelers risk their safety when visiting these countries.

The risk of terror attacks in Turkey, including against U.S. citizens and interests, “remains high,” the department stated. Terrorists have previously attacked the U.S. Consulate General in Istanbul, the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, and the U.S. Consulate in Adana.
