Our Travel Advice has consistently highlighted the threat from terrorism and from kidnapping in Libya, and advises against all travel to the country on that basis. Since the emergence of ISIL in Libya we have added further information and advice to the FCO Travel Advice. We have taken steps to contact all British Nationals and companies, who we believe may be in Libya, to advise them of these changes, and that they should consider leaving the country immediately.
