Terrorism in Europe: US to alert travellers?

Washington, Oct 3: US officials may issue an order, which would warn its citizens to take extra vigils while travelling to Europe.

The State Department will issue a "travel alert" for Europe to advise Americans to stay vigilant on the continent because of threat information, informed senior US official.

"This travel alert is a cumulative result of information we have received over an extended period," stated the official and continued, "We are constantly monitoring a range of threat streams and have monitored this and others for some time."

However, State Department spokesman PJ Crowley declined to comment on the matter.

The move by US official could have negative implications for European tourism, business and diplomacy if travelers fear there's a possibility of terror attacks.
