Foreign Office warns Brits not to travel to 76 countries – see full list

The Foreign Office has taken measures amid the war in the Middle East and several holiday hotspots, such as Thailand, Egypt and United Arab Emirates, are impacted

Brits have been warned not to travel to dozens of countries due to the war in the Middle East.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO)’s list, which is constantly being updated, includes holiday hotspots, such as Thailand, Egypt and United Arab Emirates. Flights in and out of Dubai, which is in the United Arab Emirates, were suspended on the weekend and Brits there remain stranded.

Keir Starmer has insisted the UK Government will help keep Brits abroad safe. However, his FCDO team has listed 76 countries Brits should avoid for the time being due to the conflict. Of 226 countries or territories with foreign travel advice pages, 76 are currently flagged as having no-go zones.

Larges areas of airspace remained closed across the Middle East. Various airlines, including British Airways, have said they are “closely monitoring the situation” and have cancelled “a number of our flights to the Middle East”. Our sister title, Birmingham Live, has carefully broken down the full list, which features countries all across the world.
