The UK Foreign Office travel advice for Kenya has been reviewed and reissued with an amendment to the Summary and Local Travel sections. The overall level of the advice has been lowered. A summary follows:"British High Commission officials continue to monitor the situation and this travel advice will be updated at regular intervals. We are working closely with the Kenyan authorities and are doing what we can to ensure that as many British nationals as possible across the country are aware of our travel advice. We advise against all but essential travel to the following parts of Kenya; Western and Nyanza provinces, Rift Valley province between Narok and Kitale, the central business district, Kibera, Mathere and Eastleigh areas of Nairobi, Uhuru Park and Mombasa town. The security and political situation in the country remains unpredictable. If you are in affected areas you should remain indoors. You should avoid all public gatherings and large public meetings. Any rallies, even if advertised as peaceful, could potentially turn violent. If you are currently in Kenya you should exercise extreme caution and seek advice locally either from your tour operator or the local authorities, particularly if you need to travel."
