This comes after the security situation in Ethiopia deteriorated significantly in the last several days with a continued escalation of armed conflict and civil unrest in Amhara, Afar and Tigray.

“We strongly suggest that U.S. citizens seriously reconsider travel to Ethiopia and those who are currently in Ethiopia consider making preparations to leave the country”, the statement reads.

According to the report from the U.S Embassy in Khartoum, Sudan, a significant portion of the A2 highway connecting Addis Ababa with cities to the north has been restricted by Federal authorities which has led to disruptions, stranded travelers, and a generally non-permissive travel environment.

“U.S. Embassy personnel are currently restricted from traveling outside of Addis Ababa city limits” the statement added.

The U.S has launched an online survey to collect and register personal data of its citizens in the war-torn Ethiopia.

“If you are a U.S. citizen, or if you have a U.S. citizen family member, in Ethiopia please register your presence in Ethiopia with us immediately at AddisACS@state.gov with the following information”, the statement further emphasized.
