UAE orders overnight curfew for deep clean, Gulf coronavirus cases rise

The United Arab Emirates directed most of the public and private sectors to have the majority of staff work from home, and imposed overnight curfews as a temporary measure this weekend for a nationwide disinfection to combat the coronavirus. Only essential service workers would be allowed out and violators will face fines, a security forces spokesman said in a press conference on Thursday. The UAE has slowly followed other Gulf states in suspending passenger flights and closing public venues such as restaurants and malls.
