London: According to a new study by ‘International SOS’, Pakistan has become one of the most dangerous countries to travel to in 2025. These countries of the world, including Pakistan, have been revealed, where it may be dangerous to travel in 2025.
A new study conducted regarding the risks of security, health and climate change has revealed these countries of the world, including Pakistan, where it may be dangerous to travel in 2025.
According to the risk map compiled by the company International SOS, Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan and the Central African Republic have been declared the most dangerous countries in the world in terms of extreme security risks. Besides them, Yemen, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Ukraine are also included in this list.
The countries with the ‘highest’ security risk include Mali, Ethiopia, Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Venezuela, Haiti and Honduras.
This annual map assesses various risks such as security risks, medical risks, climate change and mental health risks to inform travelers and businesses around the world about potential risks.
The map provides organizations and businesses with a rating of the risks that are affected by controversial events such as wars, infectious diseases and the impact of weather conditions.
Each country is assessed on five levels of different risks, from ‘unimportant’ to ‘extreme’ for security and from ‘low’ to ‘very high’ for medical risks.
This year, the UK was rated ‘low’ in all three risk categories, except for mental health, which had a score of between 15 and 17.5 percent of the population, the second highest score.
The company also highlighted how conflict-related risk factors have increased in different regions in 2024, such as Israel’s offensive in Gaza and the war in Sudan.
International SOS says the impact of conflict in Sudan, Lebanon, Israel, Iraq and Myanmar in 2024 has led to increased risk ratings for these countries.
