Trump adds 5 countries to travel ban, imposes new limits.

The Trump administration is expanding its travel ban to include five more countries and impose new limits on others, citing concerns about corruption and security risks. This decision comes after the arrest of an Afghan national suspected of shooting two National Guard troops. The ban now includes Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan, and Syria, while 15 other countries face partial restrictions. The administration emphasized the need to prevent entry of individuals posing risks and cited challenges in vetting citizens from these countries.
