The U.S. Mission in Pakistan has issued a security alert urging its personnel and American citizens to steer clear of the Serena Hotel in Peshawar from November 27 to December 16, 2024. The warning is based on credible security threats.
The advisory advises U.S. citizens to avoid the hotel and its surrounding area during this period and to reconsider their travel plans. It also references the existing “Do Not Travel” advisory for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, issued on September 10, 2024, due to ongoing terrorism concerns.
For those already in the area, the advisory recommends exercising extreme caution and leaving the vicinity immediately if they unexpectedly find themselves nearby. U.S. citizens are encouraged to review their personal security arrangements, stay updated with local news, keep a low profile, and remain aware of their environment. Additionally, the U.S. Mission advises travelers to carry proper identification and cooperate with local authorities if necessary, and to stay informed by consulting travel reports.
This precautionary measure reflects ongoing security concerns and the U.S. Mission’s commitment to the safety of its citizens in Pakistan. U.S. nationals are reminded to take these precautions seriously and remain vigilant while traveling.
