Tourists are also warned about certain items they may attempt to bring back to the U.S.
"Travelers transporting ivory may be detained, imprisoned or fined and the ivory may be confiscated," the advisory says.

Ethiopia has strict laws pertaining to photography.
"It is illegal to take pictures of government buildings, military installations, police/military personnel, and key infrastructure such as roads, bridges, dams and airfields," the advisory points out.
Officials say that if tourists are caught taking pictures of prohibited sites, they may be subject to fines, have photographic equipment confiscated and even face possible arrest.
"As a general practice, you should avoid taking pictures of individuals without their clear consent," it also advises.
Ethiopia is home to 12 UNESCO World Heritage sites — including churches, parks and ancient ruins.

American woman missing after husband says she fell overboard, swept to sea during Bahamas boat trip: police
An American woman went missing in the Bahamas on Saturday after she fell overboard on a boat trip and was carried away by strong currents, according to local police.
The woman was swept into the ocean on Saturday at around 7:30 p.m. during an evening boat trip with her husband from Hope Town to Elbow Cay in the Bahamas, according to the Royal Bahamas Police Force. Authorities said the woman fell off the boat with the ignition key, causing the engine to shut off.
Police said her husband lost sight of her while strong currents swept her away, adding that both people are U.S. nationals.
AMERICAN WORKER SHOT, KILLED IN BAHAMAS AS SENIOR OFFICER CHARGED WITH MURDER: POLICE
The man paddled to shore, reaching the Marsh Harbour Boatyards around 4 a.m. Sunday.
He alerted someone after paddling to shore, who then notified police of his wife's disappearance.
MAJOR CRUISE LINE CANCELS PLANNED SAILINGS, UPENDING VACATIONS: 'DEFINITELY A DISAPPOINTMENT'
The Royal Bahamas Police Force is investigating the woman's disappearance along with the Royal Bahamas Defense Force and the Hope Town Fire & Rescue.
Due to crime, the U.S. State Department currently says the Bahamas is under a level 2 travel advisory and urges Americans to "exercise increased caution" due to crime, beach safety, as well as jet skis and boating.
The State Department said that boating in the Bahamas isn't well regulated, stating that "injuries and deaths have occurred."
Pro wrestling star Trevor Lee signs MLW deal, talks goals with company
Pro wrestling star Trevor Lee signed a deal with Major League Wrestling (MLW) and will continue performing with the company as the Southern Crown champion.
Lee, who wrestled in WWE as Cameron Grimes, returned to MLW for sporadic appearances after he was released. He faced off against Mistico at MLW Eric Bischoff’s One Shot, appeared at Battle Riot VIII in January and a handful of Fusion tapings.

He won the MLW Southern Crown Championship in a Bunkhouse Stampede match against Andrew Everett, Beastman, Diego Hill, Festus, Ikuro Kwon, Jesus Rodriguez, Josh Bishop, Matthew Justice and Paul Walter Hauser.
"I’m just excited to be able to really kind of do anything," Lee told Fox News Digital. "You know, these past couple of years, I’ve been kind of waiting on a good opportunity and I feel like MLW is kind of presenting that opportunity. I really liked the ability to be able to work with CMLL (Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre), to be able to work with New Japan.
"So, it’s really cool to see what’s going to come out of this."
Lee is among former WWE wrestlers who have joined MLW over the last few years. Matt Riddle, Killer Kross, Scarlett Bordeaux, Shotzi Blackheart, Donovan Dijak, Bishop Dyer, Austin Aries, Doc Gallows, Karl Anderson, Priscilla Kelly and several others have all competed in WWE at one point or another.
PRO WRESTLING STARS KILLER KROSS, SCARLETT BORDEAUX TALK 'VERY SIMPLE DECISION' TO WORK IN MLW AGAIN
It also helps that MLW founder Court Bauer has a WWE background as well.
"I think what really entices me to want to work with MLW is that they do have a great production," Lee explained. "When you watch the product, it looks good. The crowds are big, the crowds are loud. That’s really kind of all you’re asking for, especially when you kind of take a step down.
"MLW isn’t WWE, but they’re not an indie either. They’re right there. So, it’s nice to be able to be at a place that can represent you well, show you well, and also give you a good batch of talent to work with as well with so many different companies that can come through there."
Lee, 32, said he wanted to keep showing the pro wrestling world that he can still perform at a high level.
"I just want to be able to show that I’m more than just like a comedy promo act. I can have these elite tier matches and that’s really what my goal is with MLW – to see how far we can go," he said.
He said he hoped to be able to square up with Aries, Riddle, Dijak as well as CMLL and New Japan competitors.

Chelsea Handler rips marriage as ‘outdated,’ says she prioritizes freedom
Chelsea Handler is opening up about her philosophy on men and dating.
During a recent appearance on the "Angie Martinez IRL Podcast," the 51-year-old comedian discussed her views on relationships, marriage and men in general, telling the host that she is "not out seeking men," noting, "that is not my agenda in life."
"I'm here for women and I'm here for myself," she said. "I've never been very thirsty for a man or a partner. You've got to really kind of get my attention for me to pay attention in a serious way because otherwise it's a bunch of casual encounters. You know what I mean? I like that. I like traveling a lot. I like hooking up with guys. I don't like to get too serious. I don't want someone in my space all the time. I just am not interested in that."
When it comes to whether she believes in growing old with someone, Handler said, "I mean yeah sure," but then pointed out that "there's 8 million of us" on Earth, and rather than think of yourself as alone when not in a relationship, "you have to think of yourself as like 'I'm free. I'm free now to make every decision I want for myself.'"
CANDACE CAMERON BURE SAYS ‘MEN ARE SCARED TO TALK TO WOMEN’ IN TODAY’S MODERN DATING WORLD
Freedom is a big deal for the former talk show host, who went on to say that "my whole vibe is about freedom."
"I love the idea that I don't have to check in with anybody about anything I do," she said about being single. "I don't have to consider or consult with anyone. If I want to get on a plane and go to Paris, which I will do in a moment's notice, I will go to Majorca for a month and f--- off by myself. You know what I mean? I'll do all of that stuff."
Handler is currently in a relationship with a younger man she refers to as "Cowboy." They met when he lent her $1,000 after she sat next to him at a blackjack table in Las Vegas. They later clicked when he joined her on a trip to Antarctica, and the rest is history.
Despite hitting it off with her new beau, she still claims marriage is "not something I attain to do," calling it an "outdated" tradition and "a really silly idea."

"But since I've bemoaned marriage my whole entire public life, it would be really hypocritical for me to get married, which means I'll probably do it," she said. "At some point I might just go, OK, f--- it. I'm 50 years old, so I might as well just go get married. What could go wrong at this point? But I don't care about marriage. I don't care about that. I feel like that's a very patriarchal thing anyway. You're kind of like property a little bit."
The former "Chelsea Lately" host has been in a few public relationships in the past, most recently with fellow comedian Jo Koy, whom she dated for just under one year.
Handler announced their breakup in July 2022, saying that being loved by Koy "has been one of the greatest gifts of my life," and that he had a hand in renewing her "faith in men, in love, [and] in being 100% who I am."
She further discussed the reason behind their breakup during an episode of "Now What?" in December 2022, telling Brooke Shields that she thought she found "the person [I'd] spend my life with," and even considered marriage, but that "towards the end of the relationship, it just became clear that this was not my person."

"There were just some behaviors that we couldn't agree on… It felt to me like I would have to abandon myself, which maybe I would have been OK to do if I were 20 or 25, but I wasn't willing to do that. No matter how much I loved this person — and I loved him so much — I was not going to abandon myself," Handler continued.
WNBA champ Natasha Cloud takes issue with Trump's Iran message on Easter
WNBA champion Natasha Cloud criticized President Donald Trump on Sunday after he fired off a strong message toward Iran on Easter morning.
Cloud teed off on Trump in messages posted on Threads.

"A sitting president who claims to be ‘a God fearing man’ to be tweeting on Easter Sunday that he will bomb Iran’s infrastructure IS NOT A MAN OF CHRIST," the New York Liberty guard wrote.
"A reminder that yes Jesus died for our sins, but He was murdered by…. the governing Authority. He did not follow THEIR law, because THEIR law is not God’s law. A part we TOO often just pass over."
Cloud then wrote about how terrorism is defined in the U.S.
"In the United States, terrorism is defined by federal law as:
"The unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives," she added.
LIVE UPDATES: TRUMP WARNS IRAN HE MAY STRIKE 'EVERY POWER PLANT' AS DEADLINE TO REOPEN HORMUZ NEARS
Cloud had previously called out the Trump administration’s use of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers and, nearly three years ago, got into a feud with former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom after she called the U.S. "trash" before the Fourth of July holiday.
On Sunday, Trump warned Iran that U.S. military forces could attack power plants and bridges in Iran if the Strait of Hormuz isn’t opened.
"Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F----n’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah," he wrote on Truth Social.
Trump is expected to deliver an update on the U.S. military operation in Iran on Monday.
He has said the war with Iran is "nearing completion," but a looming deadline could determine whether the conflict is actually ending — or about to escalate.

Rescue expert says most dangerous moment comes after ‘jackpot’ call in recovery behind enemy lines
The most dangerous moment in a high-stakes rescue mission often comes after the objective is secured, a veteran operator told Fox News on Monday, reacting after U.S. forces recovered a missing airman behind enemy lines in Iran.
"Very often when these operations happen... we get our objective [and] over the radio, we say 'jackpot'... and very often in the command center when that happens, everyone starts high-fiving each other because that means that you got the target, you got to [the] objective ...," Grey Bull Rescue founder and Chairman Bryan Stern told "Fox & Friends First."
But for the team on the ground, that moment marks the beginning of the most difficult phase in the rescue.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP BRIEFED ON DOWNED F-15 FIGHTER JET IN IRAN
"If I'm calling 'jackpot' on the radio, that means that my team and I are still behind enemy lines. We just happen to now have our package with us. Getting home is often the harder part," Stern explained.
He continued, "My blood pressure always spikes as soon as we call a 'jackpot'... because I know everyone's very excited and not paying attention. I've got to get the team… back on track to remind them we still have to get home."
US PILOT RESCUED FROM DOWNED F-15E FIGHTER JET IN IRAN, SEARCH FOR SECOND CREW MEMBER ONGOING
Stern's remarks come after forces rescued a missing U.S. weapons systems officer from a downed F-15E in Iran following a multi-day search inside enemy territory as Iranian forces simultaneously searched the area.
The pilot, who also ejected from the jet in Khuzestan province, was rescued Friday morning.
President Donald Trump touted the recovery mission as an "Easter miracle."
Amazon job text scam warning signs
You get a text message. It says Amazon is hiring. The pay sounds great. The work is easy. It feels like a lucky break. Then you read it again. That is when things start to feel off, and you realize it could be a scam. Let's break down the exact text message scammers are sending and call out every red flag so you know what to watch for next time.

YOUTUBE JOB SCAM TEXT: HOW TO SPOT IT FAST
Here is what stands out right away in this message.
The message opens with "Hi" and does not include your name. Legitimate recruiters usually personalize outreach, especially for a job opportunity. A generic greeting suggests this message was sent to many people at once.
The message shows up out of nowhere, which should immediately raise concern. In this case, there was no application submitted and no prior contact with a recruiter. Because of that, the outreach feels unexpected and unverified. Legitimate companies do not randomly text people with job offers, especially without any previous interaction.
The message comes from a random Hotmail email address, not an official Amazon domain. Real recruiters from Amazon use corporate email accounts tied to Amazon. They do not text you from a generic email or personal number. That alone should stop you in your tracks.
The role description sounds broad and generic. "Supporting Amazon sellers" and "online tasks" could mean anything. There are no clear responsibilities, no team, no department. Scammers keep things vague on purpose. It helps them reach more people.
The message promises $100 to $600 per day for about an hour of work. That is not how legitimate jobs work. When you see high pay for very little effort, that is often bait designed to pull you in fast.
It mentions a base pay of $1,000 for every four working days. That conflicts with the daily rate listed earlier. Inconsistent details are a common scam signal. Real job offers are clear and consistent.
The message asks you to text "Interested" to a phone number instead of applying through a formal process. There is no application, no interview and no verification. Because of that, the urgency is intentional and designed to get a fast response before you have time to think it through.
The message tells you to text a number like +14482009251. At first glance, it may look like a U.S. number because of the +1 country code. But scammers often use internet-based numbers that can be routed from anywhere. Legitimate recruiters rarely ask you to move a job conversation to a random phone number. If the number feels off, trust that instinct.
It says, "If you are 25 or older." That is not a standard hiring requirement for most roles. Random restrictions like this are another sign that something is off.
There is no mention of:
Legitimate companies follow structured hiring steps. They do not skip straight to texting.
SSA IMPERSONATION SCAMS ARE GETTING MORE PERSONAL
These messages hit a sweet spot for many people. They promise flexible work while also offering remote roles and quick income. As a result, that combination is hard to ignore, especially if you are job hunting. Because of this, scammers design messages that feel like an opportunity rather than a risk.
You are likely to see more messages like this. Job scams have moved from email to text because people respond faster on their phones. That means you need to slow down and question anything that feels too easy or too good. A real opportunity will still be there tomorrow. A scam depends on speed.
We reached out to Amazon about this text message scam, and a spokesperson told us:
"Scammers that attempt to impersonate Amazon put consumers at risk. We will continue to invest in protecting consumers and educating the public on scam avoidance. We encourage consumers to report suspected scams to us so that we can protect their accounts and refer bad actors to law enforcement to help keep consumers safe."
Start with a quick gut check. Then take these steps.
Go to the official website of Amazon and check their careers page. If the job is real, it will be listed there.
Instead, ignore the message completely. Do not text back, click any links or call the number. Even a quick reply can confirm your number is active, which may lead to more scam attempts.
Scammers often find your number through data broker websites that collect and sell personal information. Using a trusted data removal service can help reduce your exposure by removing your information from hundreds of these sites and lowering the chances of being targeted. Check out my top picks for data removal services and get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web by visiting Cyberguy.com
If a scam message leads you to a link, your device could be exposed. Strong antivirus software helps block malicious downloads before they cause harm. Get my picks for the best 2026 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android & iOS devices at Cyberguy.com
High pay for minimal work is one of the biggest warning signs. If it sounds easy, assume there is a catch.
TECH GIANTS UNITE TO FIGHT ONLINE SCAMS
Look at the email or phone number. If it is not tied to the company, treat it as suspicious.
Never share sensitive details like your Social Security number, banking information or ID through text. Real employers use secure systems, not text messages.
After you spot the red flags, delete the message right away. In addition, use your phone's "Report Spam" option to flag it. This helps your carrier and messaging apps identify similar scams and block them for others. Also, Amazon recommends visiting its help pages to find additional information on how to identify scams and report them at amazon.com/ReportAScam.
At first, the message looks polished. It uses a name and references a well-known company while laying out pay and benefits. However, once you slow down, the problems become clear. For example, the greeting is generic, and you never applied. In addition, the sender does not match the company, and the phone number feels off. On top of that, the pay is unrealistic, and the hiring process is missing entirely. This is how most scams work. They depend on speed instead of accuracy.

NBC’s Savannah Guthrie emotionally thanks fans for prayers, support in return to 'Today'
NBC’s Savannah Guthrie largely kept the focus on the news during her highly anticipated return to "Today" on Monday after a two-month absence as the search for her missing mother continues.
Guthrie was poised during her return, which came 64 days after her mother, Nancy, went missing from her Arizona home. At 8:30 a.m. ET, 90 minutes into her return, Guthrie went outside to join the crowd gathered in the plaza outside the show’s Rockefeller Center studio.
"These signs are so beautiful. You guys have been so beautiful, I received so many letters, so much kindness, and my whole family, we feel it, we feel your prayers. Thank you so much," Guthrie said as she teared up.
Guthrie then acknowledged a fan wearing a shirt that said, "Welcome home Savannah," and took selfies with members of the crowd. She never mentioned her mother by name during the show.
Nancy Guthrie went missing on Feb. 1, prompting her daughter to step away from NBC's flagship morning show. The nationwide search for her mother has made national headlines but so far elicited few clues about her whereabouts or fate.
Guthrie treated her return like business as usual at the opening, teasing stories on the war with Iran, President Donald Trump’s Easter morning social media post, rising gas prices and the Artemis II mission to space.
"Good morning, welcome to ‘Today’ on this Monday morning. We are so glad you started your week with us, and it is good to be home," Guthrie told viewers to kick off the program.
"Here we go, ready or not, let’s do the news," she added, alongside co-anchor Craig Melvin.
Once Guthrie said she was happy to be home, NBC’s morning show did the news as usual. Later in the first hour, Guthrie noted the "love" from fans.
"Some beautiful signs out there," Guthrie said.
"I’m excited to see them, give them all a hug," she continued, teasing her eventual trip outside. "I’ve been really feeling the love so much."
Guthrie donned a yellow dress, and her colleagues wore yellow ribbon pins in a nod to her missing mother.
SAVANNAH GUTHRIE'S EASTER MESSAGE REVEALS ANGUISH AS MOM MISSING 63 DAYS
Nancy Guthrie is believed to have been taken from her home against her will and was last seen when her son-in-law dropped her off at home around 10 p.m. the night before she went missing.
Investigators and the family have repeatedly appealed to the public for help. There is a combined reward of more than $1.2 million in connection with the case — a million of it from the Guthrie family for their mother's recovery. The family has asked anyone with information to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
Newsom's California rail project now expected to cost $126B, official admits, with still no tracks laid
California's delayed, over-budget high-speed train from Los Angeles to San Francisco is running fast in only one direction: Rising costs to even get rolling, which are now estimated to be $126 billion.
"Today, we estimate with the right optimization just over $125 billion," California High Speed Rail Authority board member Anthony Williams told CBS's "60 Minutes" on Sunday. "I think $126 billion is the current estimate for that."
That is nearly four times the $33 billion price tag presented to voters in 2008, making the long-delayed project a black eye for Democratic-run California, derided as the latest political example of "waste" in deep-blue America and a "train to nowhere."
"We’re now in 2026: There are no trains; there’s no track laid; it was a complete bait and switch," Rep. Vince Fong, R-Calif., told "60 Minutes," saying the project "needs to stop."
"The California high-speed rail nightmare is the probably quintessential example of government waste and mismanagement."
California’s long-troubled high-speed rail project is facing renewed scrutiny after state Transportation Secretary Toks Omishakin acknowledged that many of its critics have a point.
"There were mistakes made," Omishakin told CBS. "Some of the criticisms on this project, I think, are very fair."
TRUMP ADMIN UNCOVERS 'STAGGERING' $8.6 BILLION IN SUSPECTED CALIFORNIA SMALL BUSINESS FRAUD
"I don't think the voters fully understood, and neither did we in the public sector, what it was going to take to actually get this project delivered," Omishakin added.
Taking aim at California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, President Donald Trump called California's project "the worst cost overrun, I've ever seen," a statement he has in the past reserved for Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell's Federal Reserve Building in Washington, D.C.
"This administration is working to usher in a Golden Age of Transportation," Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy told CBS in a statement. "That vision includes high speed rail and we're exploring opportunities to efficiently build that infrastructure in America.
NEWSOM’S FAILED LEADERSHIP HAS LET CALIFORNIA BECOME A LAND OF FRAUD AND SCAMS
"What this administration won't stand for is boondoggle projects like Newsom's Train to Nowhere that wasted billions in taxpayer dollars yet delivered nothing to the American people," Duffy said. "Under President Trump, America is building again. We defunded Newsom's disaster and created the first Trump Infrastructure Dividend. Those dollars will now actually fund critical projects that enhance safety on rail networks across America."
Newsom himself cast doubt on the full San Francisco-to-Los Angeles plan in 2019, and the project now faces a funding gap of roughly $90 billion.
"For $10 billion, Elon Musk put 300 rockets in orbit; for $11 billion, the state of California has built 1,600 feet of elevated rail with no rail," Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar said in 2024.
State officials say they remain confident more money can be found to dump into the project, but for now California’s high-speed rail stands as a costly symbol of ambition, delay and deep public skepticism.
"The ultimate 494 miles of building this out without the federal government's help will be challenging: There's no doubt about that," Omishakin said.
Nearly two decades since the start of the project, no track has been laid, and the only major visible progress is on a Central Valley segment between Bakersfield and Merced, according to the report.
The project’s earliest projected opening is now 2033, far later than originally promised. Critics, including Bakersfield's Fong, a member of the House Transportation Committee, want the project completely "stopped."
CALIFORNIA IS BROKE, BUT IT’S NOT TOO LATE FOR THE REST OF US
"The business plan that was put out in 2008 was very theoretical," Fong said. "You know, 'This is what we think is gonna happen.'
"And it became very clear that they didn't have the specifics worked out."
Fong has sought oversight and accountability on the waste, including 597 change orders that have cost more than $2.3 billion alone as of November 2025, which is nearly 7% of the initial $33 billion project estimate.
"Taxpayers deserve full transparency and accountability," Fong wrote in a statement in February. "The high-speed rail nightmare is a glaring example of structural mismanagement.
"Reckless, repeated contract amendments have squandered resources and precious tax dollars. Hardworking California taxpayers cannot afford to let this continue. This project should be canceled before even more money and time are wasted."
'Credible intelligence' reveals North Korea's successor to Kim Jong Un, South Korea says
South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) thinks that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's daughter has been lined up to be her father's eventual successor, lawmakers noted on Monday, according to Reuters.
The NIS indicated to lawmakers that its analysis stems from what it characterized as "credible intelligence" that it had gathered, Reuters reported, citing briefings by ruling and opposition party members following a closed-door parliamentary meeting.
Video footage posted last month showed Kim and his daughter on a tank.

The South Korean agency indicated that the scene of the girl driving a tank was meant to emphasize her supposed military aptitude and counter doubts concerning a female successor, lawmakers noted, according to the outlet.
North Korean state-run media KCNA published photos of the North Korean leader and his daughter with a tank last month, following prior images of the girl utilizing firearms, Reuters reported.
The daughter is thought to be about 13 years old and named Ju Ae.

The outlet reported that ruling Democratic Party lawmaker Park Sun-won indicated that the scenes are meant to pay "homage" to the North Korean leader's military appearances years ago when he was being set up to succeed his father as regime leader.
Korea Institute for National Unification analyst Hong Min said the tank scene is not enough to determine that she has been established as her father's successor, pointing out that she appeared with her father rather than independently, unlike her father's independent military appearances as he was being groomed to take the helm.
