Continued Suicide Bombings in Morocco - TODAY

[thkcmp 0]

Thanks for keeping us informed here on what's going on. It's hard to keep up here in America....so many different sites....some with different info.

My fiance lives about 91 miles from Casablanc. He plays soccer a living and his matches are on Saturdays and sometimes his games are in other cities in Morocco. He had a game today at 2:30 Morocco time but I didn't think to ask him where he would be playing.....hopefully not near Casa.

I, too, am praying for everyone in Morocco....for their safety and that these people will be caught soon and that things will calm down for at least a while. To all of you who have interviews soon I'm praying that this will not affect anyone in a negative way.

God Bless You All

I am so happy to see all of the support you all have for each other - I am still new to this site, but because I am actually living here fighting my husband's denial - I am trying to at least keep you all informed as much as I can on news issues. If I receive any information on the consulate and there services again - I will let you know - I get e-mails from them because I am living here. My prayers are with all of your families that are here and just continue to tell them to stay safe and be very aware of their surroundings, especially when in Casablanca.

Even though I'm not dealing with Morocco, I feel really bad about the things going on there. Especially to the people who have interviews and petitions going there, I really hope it doesn't affect your case. I guess Monday we will know what is going on as far as the consulate being open. Good luck to everyone.

Aww how sweet. Thank for for thinking of all of us with ties to Morocco. I see you fiance is going through Liberia. I hope he has a smooth journey. Liberia has suffered greatly also!

Well, I know I would feel horrible if my fiance's embassy were a target and I've been reading about Moroccans having a tough time with the visa journey when it's NOT being targeted. Yes, Liberia had a tough time and the embassy there just re-opened less than 3 months ago after several years of being closed, so I'm very nervous because I don't have anyone's experiences to reference. Thanks for the well wishes!

On the morning of April 14, two suicide bombs were detonated on Boulevard Moulay Youssef in central Casablanca, one near the United States Consulate General and the other near the American Language Center. Police have secured the area and are undertaking an investigation. Other than the two suicide bombers, the U.S. Mission in Morocco has received no reports of fatalities or serious injuries. U.S. government personnel in Casablanca have been advised to remain at home. American citizens are urged to remain alert to local security developments and be vigilant regarding their personal security.

The potential for violence against American interests and citizens and other Western targets remains high in Morocco. Moroccan authorities continue to disrupt groups seeking to attack U.S.- or Western-affiliated targets and arrest individuals associated with international terrorist groups. Establishments which are readily identifiable with the United States are potential targets for attacks. These may include facilities where US citizens and other foreigners congregate, including clubs, restaurants, places of worship, schools, hotels, movie theaters and other public areas. Such targets may also include establishments where activities occur that may offend religious sensitivities, such as casinos or places where alcoholic beverages are sold or consumed. Due to varying degrees of security at all such locations, Americans should be particularly vigilant when visiting these establishments.

While in Morocco, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and maintain a low profile. All U.S. citizens are urged to consider seriously their personal security and to take those measures they deem appropriate to ensure their well-being. Report any suspicious incidents or problems immediately to Moroccan authorities and the U.S. Embassy in Rabat or the U.S. Consulate General in Casablanca.

The U.S. Department of State encourages all American citizens residing in Morocco to register their presence and obtain up-to-date information on security conditions at the U.S. Consulate General in Casablanca at 8 Blvd. Moulay Youssef, Telephone: 022-43-05-78. After hours, please call 022-26-45-50 or 061-17-23-67. Information is also available on our website at: http://casablanca.usconsulate.gov/warden_information.html

For the latest security information, Americans traveling abroad should regularly monitor the Department's Internet website at http://travel.state.gov where the current Worldwide Caution Public Announcement, Middle East and North Africa Public Announcement, and other Travel Warnings and Public Announcements can be found. Up to date information on security can also be obtained by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll free in the United States, or, for callers outside the United States and Canada, a regular toll line at 1-202-501-4444. These numbers are available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday (except U.S. federal holidays).

Shoot! You guys are getting me scared! I'm going next week! Oh man! I talked to my husband and he said, it's about their government, not the americans. But since then there were more news today about the consulate.

Well, I'm going to Khemisset and into the mountain area - hope they have nothing to do there! I'll be back after Mother's day, inshallah.
