It is bordered by Jordan and Iraq to the north, Kuwait to the northeast, Qatar, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates to the east, Oman to the southeast, and Yemen in the south. It is the only nation with both a Red Sea coast and a Persian Gulf coast. The area of modern-day Saudi Arabia formerly consisted of four distinct regions: Hejaz, Najd, and parts of Eastern Arabia (Al-Ahsa) and Southern Arabia (Asir). The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was founded in 1932 by Abdul Aziz Bin Saud. He united the four regions into a single state through a series of conquests beginning in 1902 with the capture of Riyadh, the ancestral home of his family, the House of Saud. The country has since been a monarchy governed along Islamic lines.

In this edition, we focus on the threat of kidnapping in Mexico. Our incidents snapshot section provides a short analysis of significant KRE incidents reported between 15 December 2016 and 15 March 2017, including details of incidents in Afghanistan, Brazil, China, Greece, India, Iraq, Kenya, Libya, Mozambique, the Philippines, Russia, Syria, Turkey and the US.

KRE in Mexico Kidnap for ransom and extortion (KRE) has long been synonymous with Mexico and the country's overall kidnapping threat is rated as high. Mexico has consistently featured in the top kidnapping hotspots globally for several years, and in terms of threat levels in the Americas in 2016, Mexico retained its unenviable position as the worst kidnapping-affected state in the region. red24 rates Mexico as a high-risk destination and operating environment, due to a number of security concerns, including, but not limited to KRE.
