S Korea upgrades travel advisory to second highest level for Libya
South Korea has upgraded its travel advisory to the second highest level for all parts of Libya as mass anti-government protests escalate, the foreign ministry said Tuesday.With the newly issued advisory, the government is asking South Koreans staying in Libya to return unless it is an urgent trip and cancel or postpone planned trips to the country.The move came after the ministry raised the travel alert for only parts of Libya including its capital of Tripoli.The growing unrest in the Arab nation has affected South Korean nationals there.
South Korea has raised its surveillance of North Korean military activity by a level, after Pyongyang moved at least one missile to its east coast.
