The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Saturday
advised citizens to avoid travelling to Iraq in the near future due to the
unstable situation in the Arab country.
In its travel advisory, the ministry warned citizens
against visiting Iraq, citing the critical situation in several Iraqi areas and
difficulty in providing consular assistance there, RT channel reported.
Visiting Iraq would pose major threats on the
Russian citizens there, it said.
Protests and demonstrations against the
deteriorating living conditions, high unemployment rates and corruption have
been hitting the Arab country since early October.
