The United States consulate in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, issued a safety warning and a curfew for its personnel following ongoing violence between Mexican authorities and criminal organisations.
“US government personnel are subject to restrictions on their movements and an evening curfew until further notice,†according to the consulate’s official Twitter account.
It didn’t specify the curfew hour. It said the violence in Nuevo Laredo, a city along the Mexico-Texas border, began last week.
For Americans in the area, the consulate recommends advising friends and family of their safety, monitoring local press and avoiding public places.
