Abu Dhabi set out new entry rules to come into effect from Monday.

Under the new directives, every person travelling to the emirate must present a negative PCR test result received within 48 hours or a negative result from a DPI test no more than 24 hours earlier.

The regulations were part of new measures announced by Abu Dhabi's Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee late on Thursday evening.

The new testing rules will apply to vaccinated and unvaccinated members of the public.

Presently, those who received their second dose of a Covid-19 vaccine more than 28 days ago would be given E status on the Al Hosn app.

E status would allow entry to the capital from other emirates. E status could be maintained by taking a PCR test every seven days.

Separately, Abu Dhabi will reintroduce its overnight sterilisation programme from July 17, asking all to stay at home from midnight until 5am unless securing a police permit. There were also new capacity limits for public places announced.

Poland Statement
All people fleeing from Ukraine before the armed conflict are allowed to enter Poland. Our country shelters every person whose life is in danger - regardless of their nationality.

The dominant group of refugees in Poland are citizens of Ukraine, but among the people checked by the Border Guard are also citizens of the USA, Nigeria, India, Georgia and other countries.

All persons admitted to Poland are verified by the Border Guard. In relation to those who are in doubt, e.g. do not have documents, Border Guard officers apply appropriate checking procedures.

No person who has received refuge in Poland will be sent back to a country torn by war.
