The U.S. State Department has issued a Level 2 travel advisory, urging caution for Americans considering travel to the Bahamas. The warning comes in response to an escalation of violence in the country, with at least 18 reported murders in the early part of this year alone.
The advisory serves as a precautionary measure, alerting travelers to potential dangers and advising them to exercise increased vigilance during their stay in the Bahamas. While the recent surge in violence has sparked concerns, local authorities emphasize that none of the reported killings have specifically targeted foreigners.
