Developments: 2. The United States Department of State has issued travel advisories for Mozambique, maintaining a Level 2 “exercise increased caution” status for the country while designating specific northern regions as Level 4 “do not travel.” The highest warnings apply to Cabo Delgado province, the Niassa Special Reserve, and the districts of Memba and Eráti in Nampula province. These areas are considered high-risk due to active extremist groups capable of sudden attacks on public spaces, tourist sites, and remote luxury resorts, with the potential for hostage-taking. The city of Pemba is also identified as particularly vulnerable. In addition to terrorism risks, the advisories cite concerns regarding violent crime, social instability, and unplanned protests that could block major roads or border crossings. Furthermore, the U.S. highlighted significant limitations in Mozambique’s public healthcare system, noting that medical supplies are often in short supply and facilities may lack basic resources. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-27: United States issues travel advisory for northern Mozambique The U.S. government has issued a “Do Not Travel” advisory for Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, citing active terrorist threats, potential hostage-taking, and risks of crime and civil unrest. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/united-states-issues-travel-advisory-for-northern-mozambique ### 2026-08-25: United States issues security alerts for Mozambique and Mexico The U.S. has issued heightened travel warnings for northern Mozambique due to terrorism and a specific security alert for Mexicali, Mexico, following a potential threat and suspension of government activities. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/united-states-issues-security-alerts-for-mozambique-and-mexico --- Cite as: US travel advisories for Mozambique.
