This advice has been reviewed and reissued with amendments to the Summary and Security section (clashes on Saudi-Yemen border). The overall level of the advice has changed. We now advise against all but essential travel to areas close to the Saudi-Yemen border in the Jizan, Asir and Najran provinces.
