ISLAMABAD: The US on Sunday warned its nationals in Islamabad to avoid several areas of the city citing an alert issued by Pakistani authorities regarding possible terrorist attacks.

Pakistan's interior ministry has "issued a general threat alert on possible terrorist attacks in Islamabad today", said a message posted on the US embassy's website.

Pakistani authorities had indicated that the possible attacks could target "key government installations in the downtown area of Islamabad known as the 'Red Zone' and the Marriott Hotel, Serena Hotel, Holiday Inn, Best Western and Margalla Motel", the message said.

The US embassy advised American citizens to "avoid these areas, remain vigilant, keep a low profile, and continue to exercise caution while in Pakistan".

There was no official word from Pakistani authorities. Last month, the US state department warned Americans to defer all non-essential travel to Pakistan.

It said protests had taken place across Pakistan against the US, International Security Assistance Force and Nato, and there had been widespread demonstrations condemning drone strikes and Pakistan's decision to reopen Nato transit routes to Afghanistan.
