State Dept. Issues Warning For Americans Traveling for Thanksgiving


It’s always a good idea to be attentive when travelling, whether for business or pleasure, but the State Department has issued this reminder due to increased world tensions.

Western Journalism reported:

The alert is in place until February 24, according to the government.

Still, despite the heightened state of alert, the State Department noted that it didn’t want people to cancel travel plans. “We want folks to still travel, but just to exercise greater vigilance,” a State Department official told Fox News.

State also noted that they have no specific threat inside the U.S. and are issuing the alert as a general one, not one directed at any particular area inside the U.S.

If travel is part of your holiday plans, be aware of your surroundings, practice care, be considerate of fellow travelers and thank the good Lord for His bountiful blessings.
