The United States (US) has urged its citizens to reconsider travel to Pakistan mainly due to terrorism and risks to civil aviation operating within or near the country. The Federal Aviation Administration, in a notice issued on Wednesday, said that terrorist groups continue to plot possible attacks in Pakistan. “Reconsider travel to Pakistan due to terrorism,” the State Department said in a latest travel advisory. The only official Pakistan-India border crossing point for persons who are not citizens of India or Pakistan is in the province of Punjab between Wagah, Pakistan, and Attari, India, the advisory said. Urging its citizens not to travel to Azad Jammu and Kashmir, the US State Department claimed militant groups are known to operate in the area.
