 U.S Finalizes $20,000 Visa Bond Policy Affecting Nigeria and 49 Other Nations The United States government has officially formalized its visa bond policy, making it a permanent measure that could require travelers from 50 designated countries, including Nigeria, to pay a refundable bond of up to $20,000 before receiving certain visas. First introduced as a pilot scheme in 2025, the policy targets applicants seeking B1 and B2 visas, which are designated for business and tourism. According to the U.S. Department of State, the initiative is designed to bolster compliance with local immigration laws and drastically reduce visa overstay rates.

U.S OFFICIALS SAY IRAN PLANNED TO ASSASSINATE ISRAEL’S AMBASSADOR IN MEXICO . (PHOTO).


 US officials say Iran planned to assassinate Israel’s ambassador in Mexico 

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reportedly plotted to assassinate Israel’s ambassador to Mexico, Einat Kranz-Neiger, but Mexican security forces foiled the plan last summer, according to U.S. and Israeli officials.

The alleged plot was orchestrated by the IRGC’s Quds Force, specifically its shadowy Unit 11000, which has been linked to previous attempts against Israeli and Jewish targets in Europe and Australia. The operation reportedly began in late 2024 under a Unit 11000 operative who had previously managed Iranian agents throughout Latin America from Iran’s embassy in Venezuela. By the time the plan advanced, the operative had returned to Quds Force headquarters in Tehran. U.S. officials said the plot remained active into the first half of 2025 before being successfully disrupted and no longer poses a current threat.

A U.S. official described the plot as part of a long history of Iranian attempts to target diplomats, journalists, dissidents, and others critical of the regime worldwide. Israel’s Foreign Ministry thanked Mexican authorities for preventing the attack and reaffirmed its commitment to countering Iranian threats globally. Israeli officials emphasized ongoing cooperation with international security and intelligence agencies to safeguard Israeli and Jewish targets. Iran’s mission to the UN declined to comment on the matter.
