20 18 is it safe to travel in Syria?

Syria is a typical Middle Eastern country, located on the east coast of the Mediterranean. Due to years of grievances in many regions and countries in the Middle East, wars and violent conflicts continue to occur. Tourists who travel to the Middle East recently must pay attention to their own safety. Here is a wave of Syrian security factors.

20 18 Syria is not very safe, so it is best not to travel, and business people should try not to travel.

According to CCTV news client, on October 7th, 20 18 local time, our embassy in Syria issued an announcement to remind China citizens not to travel to Syria in the near future.

According to the embassy announcement, in view of the severe security situation in Syria, our embassy in Syria issued a travel safety reminder on 20171kloc-0/0/2/0/0 to remind China citizens not to travel to Syria unless it is really necessary.

So far, Syria is still a country with high travel risks. The wars between Syrian government forces and anti-government forces have been launched in many parts of Syria, and some of them have even become more intense. In areas controlled by government forces, terrorist attacks, kidnapping and extortion, armed robbery and other incidents also occur from time to time.

Syria still lacks the most basic security for China citizens to travel individually or in groups.

Recently, however, there are still so-called Syrian photo tours organized by travel agencies in China. Therefore, our embassy in Syria once again reminds Syrian citizens and relevant travel agencies not to travel or organize tour groups in Syria for the time being, and reminds citizens and business people in China to maintain high vigilance and strengthen safety precautions and emergency preparedness.
