🚨 The U.S. Embassy has issued an urgent security alert urging all Americans in Venezuela to leave immediately as of January 10, 2026.

⚠️ Armed militias known as 'colectivos' are setting up roadblocks and searching vehicles for evidence of U.S. citizenship or support for the United States.

📍 Venezuela maintains a Level 4 'Do Not Travel' advisory due to risks including wrongful detention, torture, terrorism, kidnapping, and crime.

🛂 The U.S. government cannot provide emergency assistance or consular services, having withdrawn all diplomatic personnel from the embassy in March 2019.

✈️ International flights have recently reopened, giving Americans a window to depart safely while options are available.

🚫 U.S. citizens are advised to avoid all travel to Venezuela and leave as soon as they can do so safely.
