The Embassy of the United States of America in Banjul has closed to non-essential services since Thursday 9 June 2016, because “The Gambia Government has unexpectedly withdrawn police protection”.

“The embassy will continue to closely monitor the situation, and will keep you informed as events unfold,” said a statement by the US Embassy in Banjul.
