The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office have just updated
its advice for Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti, referring to a high risk
of terror attacks.

The FCO website (www.fco.gov.uk/travel) warns visitors to the three countries
to be highly vigilant in all areas frequented by foreign visitors, including
hotels, nightclubs, shopping centres and restaurants.

The website has been changed to underline the continued
threat from terrorism: ‘The Foreign Office continues to receive information
that Westerners are at risk from terrorist attacks in areas frequented
by foreigners.

‘In particular there is a potential threat against western
interests in Nairobi, Kenya.’

Despite the current warnings, the Foreign Office has stopped
short of advising against all non-essential travel to the three countries.
