Travel Noire ~ "On May 8, the State Department reissued its travel advisory for the United Kingdom with terrorism concerns.
The United States authority classifies the U.K. as a “'Level 2'zone. This category of travel advisory means American travelers should “exercise increased caution” while visiting across the pond. The State Department’s update on its United Kingdom travel advisory was 'after periodic review with minor edits.'
The advisory claims 'terrorist groups continue plotting possible attacks in the United Kingdom.' Places where an attack could occur include where tourists frequent, such as markets, malls, transportation hubs, hotels, clubs, and restaurants. Major events, like concerts, sporting matches, and cultural gatherings, were also listed as places where an attack could occur.
The State Department reminded travelers that terrorist attacks can happen suddenly and without warning. The authority’s country information page says 'terrorist groups and individuals inspired by them' in the United Kingdom are 'using simpler methods of attack like knives, guns, and vehicles to target crowds.'" ~ Travel Noire
