OSAC Bureau of Diplomatic Security U.S. Department of State
Location: The Netherlands
Event: Following recent targeted explosive incidents in the Netherlands and in other major European cities, the U.S. Mission to the Netherlands reminds U.S. citizens to maintain good personal security practices and exercise heightened situational awareness, consistent with the Department of State’s recent Worldwide Caution alert.
As noted in the Travel Advisory for the Netherlands , terrorist groups continue plotting possible attacks in the Netherlands. Terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, transportation hubs, markets/shopping malls, local government facilities, hotels, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, parks, major sporting and cultural events, educational institutions, airports, and other public areas.
The U.S. Mission to the Netherlands also reminds U.S. citizens of the possibility of demonstrations or protests in major cities, including near the U.S. Consulate General in Amsterdam.
