We’ve reviewed our advice and continue to advise do not travel to Syria due to the extremely dangerous security situation and the threat of armed conflict, air strikes, terrorism and kidnapping. The security situation remains extremely volatile. If you’re in Syria, you should leave as soon as possible (see ‘Safety’). Entry and exit measures for Syria may change without notice. If you’re planning to cross a land border from Syria, contact the relevant authorities in your destination country for entry requirements (see ‘Travel’).
An increased threat of military and terrorist attacks against Israel and Israeli interests across the region and ongoing military action in the Occupied Palestinian Territories could lead to increased tensions in other locations in the Middle East. Demonstration and protest activity may occur, and localised security situations could deteriorate with little notice. Avoid all demonstrations and protests. This may also result in airspace closures, flight cancellations and flight diversions and other travel disruptions.
We advise:
Do not travel to Syria due to the extremely dangerous security situation and the threat of armed conflict, air strikes, terrorism and kidnapping.
