TOKYO — The Foreign Ministry on Monday raised its travel alert for areas near Cambodia’s ancient Preah Vihear Temple, advising Japanese nationals to think carefully before traveling there, due to an ongoing military standoff.

The travel advisory, the second lowest of four warning levels, also applies to areas in Thailand along the disputed stretch of the border. It urges Japanese who plan to travel to or stay in the region to choose reliable travel agents and take appropriate safety measures.
