Missionaries in Madagascar who are not citizens of that country have been pulled out because of the political instability.
"Because of continuing civil unrest and political instability, the U.S. State Department has issued a travel warning for Madagascar," Dale Bills, spokesman for the Church, said April 18.
"All missionaries serving in the Madagascar Antananarivo Mission are safe," he said. "Missionaries serving on the island of Madagascar who are not citizens of the country have been evacuated."
Madagascar has a population of about 14 million, including about 1,500 Latter-day Saints.
