Lebanon has closed its airport, borders and ports for two weeks starting Sunday until March 29 at midnight to contain the spread of coronavirus in the country, Information Minister Manal Abdul Samad said in a press conference on Sunday in Beirut.
People are obligated to stay in their homes unless there is an “extreme necessity,” the minister said.
The government is banning public and private gatherings and government offices will be closed except for security, health and service offices, according to Abul Samad.
All private commercial companies, except for food production-related ones, were also instructed to close, the minister said.
Coronavirus killed three people and infected 100 others in Lebanon as of Sunday.
