The Kuwaiti Cabinet has decided to lift the curbs on the closure of commercial activities in the evening easing the COVID-19 related restrictions across the country.
The Cabinet revoked an earlier decision to close commercial activities at 8:00 pm, effective today, July 27. It will also open all activities for children from September 1.
However, authorities decided that only those who are immune to COVID-19 can “enter all activities.”
