Worldwide Caution Public Announcement
U.S. Embassy Harare issued the following Warden Message on March 30:
This message is being issued to alert American citizens in Zimbabwe that there have been widespread media reports of an opposition-organized stay away throughout the country on April 3rd and 4th. If the stay away takes place and is wide-spread, it has the potential to disrupt normal transportation, commerce and security operations.
American citizens should exercise caution when traveling throughout Zimbabwe, in both urban and rural areas, should avoid public demonstrations and large gatherings, and should refrain from taking pictures or video of political demonstrations. Avoid visiting high-density or industrial areas and any large gatherings or political rallies. If possible, carry a mobile phone or other means of communication.
To enhance security measures, the government of Zimbabwe may set up roadblocks in the major cities. American citizens traveling by road should be prepared to produce identification, submit to searches of their vehicle, and carry a photocopy of their U.S. passports. Do not stop at any unofficial roadblocks.
The US Embassy in Harare will be open for business during normal hours on both days.
For the latest security information, Americans living and traveling abroad should regularly monitor the Departments Bureau of Consular Affairs Internet web site at http://travel.state.gov, where the current Worldwide Cautions, Public Announcements, and Travel Warnings can be found.
