Widespread, violent protests and civil unrest in response to the political situation have been reported since October 20, 2019, throughout the country, especially in La Paz and other cities. Further unrest is likely. Extensive road closures and transportation delays (especially flights via El Alto International Airport) should be expected. Extreme vigilance is recommended; bystanders are at risk of harm from violence or from the response by authorities. Travelers should avoid demonstrations, carry a fully charged communication device, follow the advice of local authorities, and monitor the situation through local media and embassy communications.
