The US State Department has issued a severe travel warning to US citizens traveling to major events in Europe this summer, including the 2016 UEFA European Championship, tourist sites, restaurants, commercial centers and transportation.
Europe has been of a high state of terror alert since the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January 2015, the Paris attacks on November 13, 2015 and the March attacks in Brussels. Now the US State Department has issued a travel notice warning of potential attacks on major events between June and the end of August.
The State Department’s statement said:
“We are alerting US citizens to the risk of potential terrorist attacks throughout Europe, targeting major events, tourist sites, restaurants, commercial centers and transportation. The large number of tourists visiting Europe in the summer months will present greater targets for terrorists planning attacks in public locations, especially at large events. This Travel Alert expires August 31, 2016.”
