RISK SCORE CHANGES
Argentina Elevated 1.9 from Elevated 1.8: Increased risk of disruption to ground and marine cargo from more frequent industrial action affecting ports and protests
involving roadblocks, in response to government’s pandemic measures.
India Elevated 1.9 from Elevated 2.0: Reduced risk to aviation cargo from terrorist incidents or cross-border military confrontation with Pakistan, due to Covid-19
related restrictions on the aviation sector.
Iraq Very High 4.0 from Very High 3.9: Increased risk to aviation in northern Iraq, particularly shootdown risk for Turkish military helicopters by PKK militants.
Mexico High 2.7 from High 2.8: Reduced risk of ground cargo theft, as indicated by nationwide decline in such incidents on motorways since establishment of
rapid-response police facilities.
Mexico (Estado de México-Puebla-Veracruz highway; Estado de México-Querétaro highway, highways in Tamaulipas, Michoacán and Guerrero states, railways in Guanajuato
state) Very High 3.7 from Very High 3.6: Increased risk to rail cargo in Guanajuato, due to growing trend of intentional derailments and cargo theft by criminal
groups.
Nigeria Very High 3.4 from Very High 3.3: Increased risk of shootdown for aviation in the north-east, due to likely improved weapons supply for ISWAP and an
increase in air attacks on Islamists.
Pakistan High 2.5 from High 2.4: Increased risk of terrorist attacks against marine ports as the TTP attempts to revive its operations in Pakistan.
