Saudi Arabia on Friday temporarily restored flights for people who wanted to come in from the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Bahrain.
Flights from and to all these countries will land and fly from the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, King Abdulaziz Airport in Jeddah and King Fahd Airport in Damam.
Earlier in March, Saudi Arabia limited land crossings with the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Bahrain to commercial trucks only, with arrivals from the three countries temporarily limited to three airports as a precaution taken over the spread of the coronavirus.
The Saudi Ministry of Sports announced it will suspend public attendance at all sports events. A ministry statement added that this comes as a precautionary measure to stop the spread of the coronavirus in places that witness mass crowds, and the suspension will be until further notice.
