Expect heightened security across South Korea following North Korean missile tests on April 7 and April 8.

Advisories / By / April 8, 2026

North Korea launched two ballistic into the Sea of Japan on April 7 and April 8. These launches follow a recent increase in regional tensions. Historically, these kinds of missile launches have provoked responses from South Korea and the United States including heightened military presence, heightened police presence in cities, as well as both emergency and military drills. Emergency services may be on high alert in response.

Anticipate more retaliatory Iranian airstrikes in the United Arab Emirates after April 7.

Advisories / By / April 6, 2026

Anticipate Iranian airstrikes in the United Arab Emirates after April 7 following American threats of re-escalation. US President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum demanding that Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz by April 7 or face increased airstrikes. Iranian officials have refused to meet the deadline, so increased US-Israeli airstrikes will likely lead to further retaliatory Iranian airstrikes on the UAE. Previous strikes targeted heavily populated areas and airports and also prompted widespread airspace closures.

Taxi drivers will strike in Phuket, Thailand, on April 6 against rising fuel prices.

Advisories / By / April 6, 2026
