Jordan: Hotel owners plan to protest outside Libyan embassy in Amman Sept. 21

Event

Hotel owners plan to protest outside the Embassy of Libya in Amman from 11:00 Sept. 21. Protesters are demanding that the Libyan government fulfill its agreement to repay its debts. Dozens to a hundred individuals could attend the demonstration.

Increased security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the Embassy of Libya through the afternoon of Sept. 21. Clashes between police and protesters cannot be ruled out, particularly if demonstrators are overly disruptive or if they ignore police orders to disperse.

Advice

Avoid the protest due to the potential for clashes. Heed the advice of security personnel. Allow additional time to reach destinations near the affected area Sept. 21.
