Kuwait suspends flights to and from Singapore, Japan
The civil aviation authority of Kuwait has suspended all air travel to and from Singapore and Japan, the first country to do so after the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus several weeks ago, the Kuwaiti state news agency KUNA reports. The Kuwaiti Directorate General of Civil Aviation (GDCA) said Tuesday that all non-Kuwaiti citizens who visited the 2 countries in the past 2 weeks would not be allowed into the country, even if they have valid visas. Kuwaiti citizens would be put into quarantine. The GDCA would also be banning transit passengers from the countries, KUNA says. Kuwait is also no longer accepting packages from coronavirus-hit countries, nor is it processing ships from those countries. <br/>
