Mali

The US government issued an alert warning that a terrorist attack in Bamako may be planned targeting Malian government offices, the airport and/or locations frequented by Westerners including embassies, hotels and restaurants (see ‘Safety’). We continue to advise do not travel to Mali. The political and security situation could get worse suddenly. The Canadian Embassy can provide limited emergency consular assistance to Australians in need (see 'Local contacts').

We continue to advise:

Do not travel to Mali overall due to the national state of emergency and the high risk of terrorist attack and kidnapping.

Other levels apply in some areas.
