Travel Safety Update: The U.S. State Department renewed a Brazil travel advisory, keeping the overall level but adding more detail on crime risks—violent incidents like murder, carjacking, and armed robbery are reported in urban areas, with extra warnings to be careful at night, during dating-app meetups, and when withdrawing cash from ATMs. It also flags drugged drink assaults in Rio de Janeiro and notes gang and organized crime activity, with some regions listed as “Do not travel.” Connectivity for Travelers: Kyivstar launched a Travel SIM eSIM for mobile internet roaming in 38 countries, including French Guiana, with data-only packages (5/10/20/40 GB) and a separate number for abroad use.
