Nationwide State of Siege Declared After Escalating Gang Violence

Warning

Country: Guatemala

Location: Nationwide

The government of Guatemala has declared a 30-day nationwide state of siege in response to a recent surge in gang-related violence, including coordinated riots at multiple prisons and deadly attacks on police officers.

After authorities regained control of the facilities, retaliatory violence against security forces resulted in multiple police deaths and injuries, prompting the government to activate expanded security powers. The state of siege temporarily strengthens the authority of police and military forces and may limit certain civil liberties to restore public order. Schools nationwide were also canceled as a precaution. Advice: - Expect increased security operations and police/military patrols nationwide. - Follow all government and law enforcement directives without delay. - Avoid large gatherings or unsecured areas during the heightened security period. - Monitor local media and official announcements for updates on safety and restrictions. - Confirm travel plans and advisories if you are in or near affected regions.

Severe Cold Wave and Dense Fog Disrupt Travel Across Northern and Central India

Warning

Country: India

Location: Delhi NCR, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Bihar, and parts of the Western Himalayas

A widespread cold wave and dense to very dense fog are impacting large parts of northern and central India, with very low visibility at times during overnight and morning hours. This is creating major travel disruption, including delayed and cancelled flights at some airports, slower road travel with higher accident risk, and knock on delays to rail services. In higher elevation areas of Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh, periods of rain and snowfall can further affect mountain roads and disrupt sightseeing routes. Advice: - Avoid early morning road travel where possible and allow extra time for airport, rail, and intercity transfers. - Check flight status before leaving for the airport and be prepared for last minute gate changes, cancellations, and long holds on the tarmac. - If taking trains, reconfirm departure times shortly before travel and keep flexible plans for connections. - Use fog safe driving if you must travel by car: low speed, larger following distance, low beam headlights, and no sudden lane changes. - If traveling to hill stations or mountain routes, expect short notice road restrictions due to snow or landslide risk and carry warm layers, water, and snacks. - Keep power banks charged and download offline maps since delays can extend time in transit and connectivity can be patchy in some areas.

Severe Weather Causing Flooding across Pahang and Johor

Caution

Country: Malaysia

Location: Pahang and Johor States

Ongoing heavy rainfall has led to renewed and persistent flooding across parts of Pahang and Johor, resulting in the displacement of residents, the activation of relief centres, and transport disruptions. Rising river levels have exceeded alert and warning thresholds at several monitoring points, prompting evacuations in affected communities and temporary road closures due to flooding, slope instability, and infrastructure safety concerns. While conditions vary by district, the overall flood risk remains active, and authorities indicate that further localised flooding is possible over the next 24-72 hours if rainfall continues. Advice:

If in Pahang or Johor, avoid low-lying areas, floodplains, and roads near rivers, even if conditions appear calm.
Do not attempt to cross flooded roads or bridges, as water depth and structural stability may be uncertain.
Keep essential items ready: documents, medication, water, food, and power banks in case of sudden displacement.

Violence Disrupts Traders’ Protest in Dhaka

Caution

Country: Bangladesh

Location: Dhaka, Karwan Bazar, and the immediate surrounding streets

A peaceful human chain protest organized by traders at Karwan Bazar was attacked at approximately 11:30 local time. The protest was held to oppose alleged extortion targeting traders in the area.

Major Power Blackout Across the Country

Caution

Country: Cuba

A large-scale power blackout has hit the western half of Cuba, including most of Havana, after a major transmission line connecting two key power plants failed. The outage affected millions of residents, shutting down electricity, water pumps, internet connectivity, traffic lights and essential public services. Authorities describe this as one of the most significant outages in recent months, worsened by Cuba’s chronic grid instability and fuel shortages. Restoration is ongoing, but full recovery may take days, especially in areas dependent on weakened local infrastructure. For travellers, the blackout is already causing service disruptions, including reduced hotel operations, limited food and water availability, communication issues, malfunctioning ATMs, and potential delays at airports due to inconsistent power supply and strained backup systems. Advice: - Check the operational status of your hotel, airline, and airport before travelling; expect delays or reduced services. - Prepare for intermittent or prolonged loss of electricity, water, and internet in affected areas. - Carry essentials such as water, snacks, flashlights, power banks, and cash (ATMs may be offline). - Avoid travelling at night due to non-functioning traffic lights and poor visibility. - Allow extra time for all transportation, as local travel may be slow or disrupted.

Japan faces its fastest and largest influenza surge in a decade, with nearly 200,000 new cases reported nationwide within a single week.
