The Covid-19 cases in Libya have jumped to 209, as the National Center for Disease Control reported another 13 new cases after testing 648 samples.

The National Center for Disease Control again urged citizens to abide by the precautionary guidelines implemented to reduce the transmission of the Coronavirus, including the curfews orders, home quarantine, social distancing, and to maintain personal hygiene sterilization and disinfection practice.

The recent Sebha outbreak has forced the country to extend its curfew and border closure at a time when neighbouring Tunisia announced plans to open all its borders in the last half of June.
