Officials are warning Americans to reconsider travel to Venezuela, saying the South American nation presents new risks to tourists.

The country sits at a Level 3 “Reconsider Travel” advisory, according to a June 27 update by the U.S. State Department.

While Venezuela has been at a Level 3 throughout the year, the latest advisory adds the country’s recent earthquakes as a key factor for travelers.

“Venezuela experienced a powerful foreshock and earthquake in rapid succession,” said the advisory.

“These caused extensive damage and disruption to transportation, infrastructure and emergency services.”
