US Embassy in Harare increases caution over Zimbabwe with focus on crime

The US Embassy in Harare has increased Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution for Zimbabwe with a focus on crime.

The 14 May 2019 update says:

Exercise increased caution in Zimbabwe due to crime and civil unrest.            
Violent crime, such as assault, carjacking, and home invasion, is common. Smashing the windows of cars with the intent to steal, which can harm the driver or passengers, is also common.

Local police lack the resources to respond effectively to serious criminal incidents.

This comes as police have acknowledged an increase in violent crime especially robbery across the country.

Fam, this is deep.

Do you feel Zimbabwe is that unsafe for you?
