All other restrictions remain in force, such as the prohibition of weddings, funeral ceremonies, cinemas, public swimming pools, etc.
The government calls on citizens to be extremely vigilant and to strictly respect the wearing of masks, distancing and hygiene measures, knowing that summer activities and those of Aid Al Adha are favourable to the spread of the virus.
The government also announced that in case of the emergence of clusters, any industrial, commercial, service or tourist unit will be closed. And that any neighbourhood or area will be placed under strict quarantine if necessary and their accesses tightly closed in both directions.
