In order to control the surge in COVID-19 cases, Jordan’s Prime Minister Bisher Khasawneh on Sunday declared that a five-day nationwide lockdown would be forced from Nov. 11, a day after the country’s parliamentary elections.
Addressing a press conference in the kingdom’s capital Amman, the prime minister told the lockdown would start approximately 5:00 p.m. local time on Nov. 11.
In addition to the upcoming lockdown, Jordan also put forward new restrictions, which included reducing large gatherings, increasing the curfew time by one hour and closing amusement parks and gyms.
“Starting tomorrow, there will be more police patrols that would enforce the defence laws related to wearing face masks and issue fines against violators,” Khasawneh added.
He implored citizens to act more responsibly and to abide by the health rules such as wearing face masks and ensuring social distancing to prevent the spread of the virus
