South Korea bans traveling to Egyptian-Libyan border

The South Korean Foreign Ministry said on Friday that the government raised the alert level for traveling to all areas on the border between Egypt and Libya to the third level, which means a total travel ban due to a worsening security situation.

Since the revolution and subsequent death of Libya's dictator Muammar Gaddafi and the creation of the new government, Libya's security has deteriorated. Armed tribal groups have kidnapped Egyptian truck drivers, and the government has seen a spate of assassinations and murders.
