Security Warning Issued for Swaziland

According to information from the 'Consulate Direct Train' WeChat public account on August 25th, the security situation in Swaziland is complex at present. Criminal activities related to online fraud and gambling are rampant, and the risks of social disorder are extremely high.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Chinese embassies and consulates in South Africa advise Chinese citizens not to travel to Swaziland in the near future. Chinese citizens and organizations already present in Swaziland are urged to evacuate or move to relatively safe areas such as South Africa as soon as possible. It is important to closely monitor the situation, strengthen security measures, and prepare for emergencies. In case of an emergency, please report to the police and contact the Chinese embassies and consulates in South Africa for assistance. Those who insist on traveling or staying in Swaziland will face extremely high safety risks and this may affect the timeliness of obtaining assistance.
