US tells citizens to avoid crisis-hit Honduras
Washington,(MILLAT ONLINE):The United States on Wednesday called on its citizens to avoid all unnecessary travel to Honduras, which is in the throes of a crisis sparked by claims of vote rigging in its presidential election.
In a travel alert, the State Department urged Americans to “postpone or cancel” their travel plans over ongoing protests linked to the disputed November 26 election, which so far has no declared winner.
“Though current demonstrations have largely remained peaceful, demonstrations can be volatile and dangerous, and have included rock throwing and tire burning,” the State Department said in a statement.
