Ukraine tightens COVID-19 lockdown restrictions from Sept 23 -PM

A Ukrainian government commission decided on Tuesday to tighten coronavirus lockdown restrictions from Sept. 23 as the number of new infections has increased sharply, Prime Minister Denys Shmygal said.

Ukraine lifted lockdown restrictions as cases dropped over the summer but has now imposed a nationwide "yellow" code that restricts mass events and limits the occupancy rates of gyms, cinemas, and other cultural venues.
