The following is an uncorrected transcript of a travel advisory issued by the
Bureau of Consular Affairs
, part of the
US State Department
. This advisory was issued along with an upgrade of the
Homeland Security Office's
terror alert
level (see
Homeland Security Advisory System
) from yellow to orange. This upgrade was made prior to the one year anniversary of the September 11th
WTC
attacks on the US, and indicates a high risk of
terror
attacks.
Worldwide Caution
September 9, 2002
This
Worldwide Caution
supersedes the previous Worldwide Caution, due to expire on October 1, 2002, to alert
Americans
to the need to remain especially vigilant during the period around the anniversary of the attacks of
September 11
. There is a continuing threat of
terrorist actions
, which may target civilians and include
suicide operations
. This Worldwide Caution expires on October 31, 2002.
The U.S. Government
has continued to receive
credible indications
that
extremist groups
and individuals are planning additional terrorist actions against U.S. interests. Such actions may be imminent and include
suicide operations
. We remind
American citizens
to remain vigilant with regard to their personal security and to exercise caution.
Terrorist groups do not distinguish between official and civilian targets
. Attacks on places of worship and schools, and the murder of American citizens demonstrate that as security is increased at official U.S. facilities, terrorists and their sympathizers will seek softer targets. These may include facilities where Americans are generally known to congregate or visit, such as
clubs
,
restaurants
,
places of worship
,
schools
or
outdoor recreation events
. Americans should increase their
security awareness
when they are at such locations, avoid them, or switch to other locations where americans in large numbers generally do not congregate.
American citizens may be targeted for kidnapping or assassination
.
U.S. Government facilities worldwide remain at a heightened state of alert. These facilities may temporarily close or suspend public services from time to time to review their security posture and ensure its adequacy. In those instances, U.S. Embassies and Consulates will make every effort to provide emergency services to American citizens. Americans are urged to monitor the local news and maintain contact with the nearest
American Embassy
or
Consulate
.
As the Department continues to develop information on any potential security threats to Americans overseas, it shares credible threat information through its
Consular Information Program
documents, available on the internet at http://travel.state.gov. In addition to information on the Internet, U.S. travelers may hear recorded information by calling the
Department of State
in
Washington, D.C.
at 202- 647-5225 from their touch-tone telephone, or receive information by automated telefax by dialing 202-647-3000 from their fax machine.
