Travel firms suspend flights to Mombasa after FCO warning

Hundreds of UK tourists are being evacuated from parts of the Kenyan coast, after the Foreign Office warned of a "high threat" from terrorists.

Tour operators Thomson and First Choice cancelled all flights to Mombasa until October and said some 400 holidaymakers would be flown back as a precaution.

The FCO advised against non-essential travel to areas within 37 miles of the Kenya-Somali border and Nairobi.

Since the advice was issued there have been two explosions in the Gikomba market area of the Kenyan capital Nairobi, which killed at least 10 people.
