U.S. State Department officials are warning Americans to reconsider travel<\/a> to an off-the-beaten-path travel destination that often draws adventurous tourists.<\/p>\n

The State Department updated its travel advisory for Azerbaijan on April 28, warning Americans to reconsider trips to the country.<\/p>\n

Azerbaijan sits in the South Caucasus<\/a>, at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia.<\/p>\n

OFFICIALS CHANGE TRAVEL ALERT FOR SPRING BREAK HOT SPOT WHILE WARNING OF ‘SEXUAL ASSAULTS’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The advisory stands at a Level 3, which urges Americans to reconsider travel due to safety and security risks.<\/p>\n

Azerbaijan, a former Soviet state known for its mud volcanoes and unique landscapes, has become a niche destination for adventurous travelers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Though Azerbaijan has long been under a Level 3 advisory, the latest update adds new warnings, with the U.S. State Department advising Americans not to travel to its southern border with Iran given the risk of armed conflict.<\/p>\n

The country borders Russia, Georgia, Armenia and Iran.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Officials say the region has faced a continued risk of Iranian drone and missile strikes since U.S.-Iran hostilities escalated in late February.<\/p>\n

“Do not travel to the southern border region due to risk of armed conflict, unless this is your best overland exit from Iran,” the advisory states.<\/p>\n

The advisory also notes that terrorism is a concern in Azerbaijan, as individuals “may attack with little or no warning.”<\/p>\n

U.S. officials also warn against traveling to the Armenian-Azeri border “due to the risk of landmines.”<\/p>\n

“Landmines and unexploded ordnance exist throughout this region,” the advisory notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Many of them are not marked, so it can be hard to know where they are.”<\/p>\n

Other areas of Azerbaijan that contain landmines are Aghdam, Aghdara, Fuzuli, Gubadli, Jabrayil, Kalbajar, Khankendi, Khojali, Khojavend, Lach\u0131n, Shusha and Zangilan.<\/p>\n

Azerbaijan is the latest in a string of destinations flagged by American officials.<\/p>\n

Last month, officials issued an alert for Tirana, Albania,<\/a> another budget-friendly destination, over Iran-related security concerns.<\/p>\n

The State Department also updated its Haiti travel advisory in April, warning Americans<\/a> not to visit due to widespread kidnappings and ransom demands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
