Five countries have now issued travel and safety warnings to their citizens living or visiting the U.K. as riots and street disorder continue to plague the country.
The United Arab Emirates, Nigeria, Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia have all warned their citizens visiting or living in the U.K. that parts of the country currently present serious safety risks as unrest, initially sparked by anti-immigration protests, continues to spread throughout England and Northern Ireland.
A number of towns and cities — including the tourist hubs of Liverpool and Manchester — have seen violent disorder on the streets in the last week, with far-right groups clashing with police and rival demonstrators.
Unrest continued in parts of the U.K. on Monday night, with Belfast in Northern Ireland seeing further disorder, as well as the northern town of Darlington and Plymouth on the south coast. Since the rioting began a week ago Tuesday, 378 arrests have been made, the National Police Chiefs’ Council said Monday.
Other instances of disorder have also been seen across the country, from towns including Rotherham and Middlesbrough to larger cities such as Bristol, Leeds and Hull. Tourist hotspot London has not seen any significant disturbances.
Is the country safe to travel to as protests spread?
