As tension between opposing terrorist groups continues to rise, all travelers are advised to stay away.

Mali's "Level 4" advisory is in place to warn American citizens of threats of kidnapping, armed robbery, and terrorism. Violent crimes are especially problematic in the northern and central regions; however, travel should be avoided throughout the country.
