The U.S. State Department on Tuesday in Washington issued a global travel warning amid possible increased terrorist threats. The travel alert, which is in effect until February 24, said current information suggested that Boko Haram and their fellow killers like ISIS and al-Qaeda, continued to plan attacks in several regions.
The warning said: "Be aware of immediate surroundings and avoid large crowds or crowded places."
The release did not provide specifics of the planned attacks or threats, and mentioned no specific regions, except to note attacks this year in France, Nigeria, Denmark, Turkey and Mali.
The department noted that the current information suggested that the Islamic State movement, al-Qaeda, Boko Haram and other terrorist groups are planning more terrorist attacks in multiple regions.
“U.S. citizens should exercise vigilance when in public places or using transportation."
