US restricts official travel to Nogales
The US mission to Mexico has restricted official activities and travel in the border city of Nogales to essential movement during daylight hours only, citing unspecified threat information. The mission alerted US citizens, urged increased caution, and told people to seek shelter and follow Mexican law enforcement instructions if an incident occurs. Nogales sits in Sonora, a state with a history of organized crime, smuggling and periodic violence, and is designated Level 3 on the US travel advisory scale, meaning travelers should reconsider travel there. The move may limit official presence and affect cross-border operations and travel plans.
