(CNN)The US Embassy in the Democratic Republic of Congo’s capital said Saturday it has received “credible and specific information of a possible terrorist threat” against US facilities in Kinshasa.
“US citizens in Kinshasa and throughout the DRC are strongly encouraged to maintain a heightened level of vigilance and practice good situational awareness,” said the embassy. “Keep a low profile and notify friends and family of your safety.”
The embassy will be closed to the public Monday because of the threat.
