London: The United Kingdom has issued a fresh travel advisory, urging its citizens to avoid traveling to Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) and areas along the India-Pakistan border.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the advisory, issued by the UK\u2019s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), specifically warns British nationals against all travel to IIOJK, including popular tourist destinations such as Pahalgam, Gulmarg, Sonamarg, and Srinagar city, as well as the Srinagar-Jammu Highway.<\/p>\n

However, the FCDO has made two exceptions: travel by air to and from Jammu city, and movement within Jammu city itself, are deemed permissible.<\/p>\n

In addition, the FCDO advised against all travel within 10 kilometres of the India-Pakistan border, citing heightened security concerns. It also noted that the Wagah-Attari border crossing remains closed for tourists.<\/p>\n

The advisory comes in the wake of heightened security alerts across India after the November 10 explosion at the Red Fort in New Delhi, which claimed several lives and injured many others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
