Police checkpoints were set up in Igoeti, Samtavisi and Kvemo Chala villages of the Shida Kartli to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus. The Interagency Coordination Council decided on Friday.

Locals will undergo thermal screening and testing when entering or exiting these three villages. No restriction on movement or lockdown is imposed in the Kaspi Municipality of the region.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) called on the locals to obey the regulations.

Mass testing has been launched in the Lanchkhuti Municipality of the Guria region due to the increased daily coronavirus cases.
