STATE DEPARTMENT TRAVEL INFORMATION - Bahrain
============================================================
Bahrain - Public Announcement
 January 18, 1995

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
 Office of the Spokesman

For Immediate Release

As a result of recent demonstrations in Manama, the U.S. Embassy in 
Manama advises that American citizens avoid large public gatherings 
and exercise caution in public areas.  The U.S. Embassy further 
advises that conservative dress may be appropriate for Americans in 
light of upcoming Ramadan observances during the month of February.

The U.S. Embassy recommends that, if possible, Americans avoid 
densely populated residential areas, especially after dark.  While 
driving, Americans should comply with traffic diversions and detours 
established by Bahraini traffic police.  For additional information 
on travel to and through Bahrain, please consult the Consular 
Information Sheet for Bahrain.
