Timor-Leste - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution
Exercise increased caution in Timor-Leste due to crime and civil unrest.

Timor-Leste, located in Southeast Asia, is a country occupying the eastern half of the island of Timor, the exclave of Oecusse on the northwestern part of the island, and the islands of Atauro and Jaco. The country is characterized by its mountainous terrain, with the Ramelau Mountains running along the length of Timor island. The highest peak, Mount Ramelau, reaches 2,963 meters above sea level. While the rugged interior dominates the landscape, Timor-Leste also features narrow coastal plains, particularly in the south. The climate is tropical, with distinct wet and dry seasons, and the country experiences occasional cyclones and floods. The islands' diverse ecosystems include tropical dry forests, mangroves, and coral reefs, contributing to a rich biodiversity.
