 US directs all nonessential staff and families to depart Mali

In an update to its travel advisory, the State Department warned that routine or emergency services for U.S. citizens outside the capital, Bamako, cannot be guaranteed. Citizens were strongly advised not to travel to Mali under any circumstances. The announcement follows a security alert issued by the U.S. Embassy in Mali earlier this week, urging Americans to depart immediately via commercial flights. The embassy also cautioned those remaining to prepare contingency plans for emergencies, including the possibility of sheltering in place for an extended period.

Authorities have repeatedly flagged disruptions in fuel supplies, closures of public institutions including schools, and ongoing armed conflict near Bamako. Mali has faced a prolonged political and security crisis since a rebellion and coup in 2012, which has worsened recently after the al-Qaida-affiliated Jama’a Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin imposed blockades on major fuel and food routes starting September 3.
