Saudi Arabia extends curfew hours in remaining cities to run from 3pm to 6am

Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Interior extended its coronavirus-imposed curfew hours into the remaining cities, not included by the 24-hours curfew, to run from 3pm to 6am, an official ministry’s source said in a statement.

The new curfew hours will become effective starting from Wednesday, April 8, 2020.

The source added that curfew exemptions still apply to those working in vital public and private sectors.

Restaurants can provide their services only through delivery until 10pm.

The decision comes within the Kingdom’s efforts to protect public health and curb the spread of coronavirus.
