TRAVEL reports: Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada have issued the following updates on the travel.gc.ca website to the following countries:
Cameroon: Exercise high degree of caution.
Although the Rapid Intervention Brigade has managed to curtail many large scale “coupures de routes” in the Extreme North Province, travellers should exercise a high degree of caution as incidents of carjacking, banditry and kidnappings still occur. Travellers entering the Extreme North Province should travel in convoys of at least two vehicles and inform the local authorities of their presence. The situation in Chad is fragile and could result in population movements at the border.
