The Media Office of the Directorate of the Ras Ajdair Border Security said that the operation of trade exchange through the border with Tunisia is continuing as normal, despite restrictions imposed by the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic.

This comes despite the current border closure between the two countries for passengers instigated to mitigate the Coronavirus.

The flow of goods was restarted in June after Tunisia had shut its border back in March to mitigate against the Coronavirus.

The Security Directorate indicated in a statement that the delivery procedure takes place at a designated point between both countries, with the proviso that goods are reloaded into different trucks without direct input of the drivers, amid strict procedures.
