All Countries With a US "Do Not Travel" Advisory on a Map

The US Department of State provides four levels of travel advisory to tourists and government workers, increasing in number by severity - some subnational areas are given different levels, depending on the situation.

See if you can name all the countries with a Level 4: Do Not Travel warning somewhere in their territory.
Based on statements on their official site.
As of 1st August, 2024. I will update this every 4 months.
Some areas are exaggerated to make them more visible.

I'm going with Jetpunk standard and keeping it grayed out. It's a lighter gray on the map but the border covers it up.

I was iffy on that advisory. The language specifies "U.S. government employees in Israel under Chief of Mission security responsibility are currently restricted from personal travel to the following locations," and I also had Trinidad out because of the same language.

I'll think about it for the next update.

I'll copy over the website's info:

Last updated on January 8, 2023, to remove the Ordered Departure of non-emergency U.S. government employees and eligible family members, and lower the overall risk level from Level 4 to Level 3.

I have no idea why either.

Wait, why is Trinidad and Tobago only allowed to be travelled to by US Government Officials? And why is it not highlighted in some way on the map?

It's the other way around -- U.S. officials who are currently in Trinidad and Tobago are prohibited from travelling to the areas within Port of Spain, due to the high crime rate.

As for it being highlighted, it is barely visible -- would be nice to have it a bit more visible.
