These attacks can target in particular the vehicle used at the exit of the airport on the day of arrival as the next day, after spotting operated by gangs. In case of late arrival, late in the afternoon or evening, you should be particularly vigilant, to prioritize lit roads and avoid the suburbs.

In such a situation, it is recommended to not offer any resistance..
