The US State Department has warned American citizens of the risks of travel to Pakistan.
A travel advisory issued on Thursday said that following the deaths of 24 Pakistani military personnel on November 26, 2011, protests have taken place across Pakistan against the United States, International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), and NATO. There have also been widespread demonstrations and large political rallies condemning drone strikes and Pakistan’s ongoing energy crisis, it said, urging US citizens in Pakistan to avoid protests and large gatherings.
