Angola: Chinese embassy warns of increased crime targetting Chinese nationals on Aug. 15
The Chinese embassy in Angola issues alert on Aug. 15 warning of increased crime targetting Chinese nationals following recent attacks
The Chinese embassy in Angola issued a travel alert to its nationals on Aug. 15, warning of increased crime risk toward its citizens. The alert reportedly follows a recent crime spate as three Chinese nationals have been murdered in separate incidents since the beginning of 2024. The embassy noted that these attacks were exceptional and advised its citizens to remain cautious and to vary their commuting patterns. It also urged local security services to resolve the cases as soon as possible.
Exercise heightened caution and vigilance while operating in Angola. Avoid traveling on foot and at night. Vary daily habits and commuting routes; do not discuss travel plans in public. Maintain contact with your diplomatic representation. Seek itinerary-specific advice from a trusted contact before departure.
