Libya’s internationally recognised government, in the west, imposed a 24-hour curfew for 10 days effective from Friday, April 17, the Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA) said in a statement.

The high committee to combat Coronavirus recommended Tuesday a total curfew in Libya starting next Friday, with shutdowns of markets, banks and unnecessary stores, excluding only foods and bakeries, allowing also people to go out between 8.00 am and 12.00 pm without using cars.

It will be reminded that Libya’s National centre for disease control reported 36 cases of coronavirus in Libya and only one death.
