Americans advised to avoid the Serena Hotel and nearby areas in Peshawar due to heightened security concerns until December 16, 2024.

The US Embassy in Pakistan issued a security alert citing a potential terror threat to the Serena Hotel in Peshawar and its surrounding areas.
The advisory, based on intelligence from recent counter-terrorism operations, instructs US personnel and citizens to avoid the area until December 16, 2024.
The Serena Hotel and nearby Peshawar Golf Club are located in a sensitive area and have a history of being targeted in past attacks.
