This comes as the company has witnessed a significant decline in coronavirus cases in August, allowing the country to resume international flights and lifting curfew. Wedding parties will only be allowed in open-air halls in tourist institutions and hotels that have obtained the government’s health certificate amid the coronavirus crisis, Cabinet’s spokesman Nader Saad said. Egypt reported the first confirmed case of the novel virus on February 14, while the first fatality was recorded on March 8.
