Jordan will extend an overnight curfew beginning Tuesday amid a surge in new COVID-19 cases, in what Minister of State for Media Affairs Amjad Adaileh said is now the second wave of the virus.
Authorities are extending an overnight curfew for Jordanians from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., with businesses not permitted to operate between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. On Friday, a 24-hour curfew will be in place in Jordan’s two biggest cities, Amman and Zarqa.
