The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on the 3rd that it will issue a travel ban on Marlee effective at 12 a.m. on the 4th, as terrorist groups are expanding their activities there.
In Marlee, security has deteriorated due to the activities of the terrorist group Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM), which is linked to al-Qaida.
Accordingly, visiting or staying in Marlee without obtaining an exceptional passport-use authorization may be punishable under the Passport Act.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, "We ask nationals planning to travel to Marlee to cancel their trips, and we ask nationals currently staying in Marlee to leave."
