This warning comes as regional escalation poses significant security risks. Travelers face disruptions and uncertainties.
As of midday, the Iranian regime has publicly stated its intention to target locations associated with the United States and Israel. The situation remains volatile.

The FCDO also warns against all travel within 3km of the Jordan-Syria border, as missiles have been intercepted in Jordanian airspace. Debris has reportedly fallen in urban areas.
Travel insurance could be invalidated if you travel against advice from the FCDO. “No travel can be guaranteed safe,” officials have stated.
