SEOUL– South Korea on Friday has decided to ban its nationals from traveling to all regions of Ukraine amid brewing tensions in the region.
The Level 4 travel alert, the highest in the four-tier system, is set to take effect Sunday, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The ban came amid growing tensions that Russia could launch a full-scale invasion into Ukraine, as it has deployed troops along the borders between the two countries.
