Kuwait suspends all flights from India

The Kuwait Cabinet has announced on Saturday that all direct commercial flights from India have been suspended until further notice.

The decision came after India reported nearly one million cases in the past three days, recording the world’s highest number of daily infections.

All passengers arriving from India directly or via another country will be prohibited from entering the country unless they have spent at least 14 days outside of India, Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) cited the cabinet as saying.

Kuwaiti citizens, their first degree relatives, and their domestic workers will be allowed to enter the country, according to KUNA.
