INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta- The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a call for Indonesian citizens not to visit Syria over the security situation in the country.

This was stated in a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs received in Jakarta on Saturday (14/4/2018)

"In connection with the development of the security situation in Syria, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged all Indonesian citizens not to travel to Syria until the security situation improves," said a statement from the Foreign Ministry.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also appealed to the Indonesian citizens currently in Syria to immediately report themselves and always communicate with the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia (Embassy) in Damascus.

Furthermore, for Indonesian citizens who want to provide or get the latest information (update) about the further security situation in Damascus and surrounding areas can use the application of Safe Travel moves. The Safe Travel app can be downloaded in both Android and iOS formats.

For Indonesian citizens in Syria who need help or information can also contact the "hotline" of the Indonesian Embassy in Damascus on + 963 954444810 or + 963937021018, and can also call the "Protection" WNI Ministry of Foreign Affairs hotline at +62 812-9007-0027.

US President Donald Trump has ordered the implementation of an attack on Syria by targeting chemical weapons users following last week's toxic gas attack, which killed at least 60 people.

Trump said a joint operation between the United States and France and Britain was moving towards the target and that they were ready to continue that action until Syria suspended the use of chemical weapons.

"I have just ordered the United States Armed Forces to conduct a precise attack against targets related to Syrian dictator's chemical weapons capabilities Bashar al-Assad," Trump said in a televised address from the White House. When Trump spoke, a number of explosions were heard in Damascus.
