Extract

The Department of State warns U.S. citizens to defer all travel to Zaire due to the uncertain political and security situation and the potential for unrest throughout the country. The deteriorating security and political situation has led the Department to order the departure of all non-essential U.S. Embassy personnel. This ordered departure follows an earlier order to dependents of U.S. Embassy personnel to depart Zaire. The Department strongly urges U.S. citizens in Zaire to depart the country. For further information, consult the Department of State's latest Consular Information Sheet for Zaire.
