Jordan said that cross-border transport of goods with Saudi Arabia continued without disruption despite restrictions introduced over concerns of a new COVID-19 strain.

Jordan’s Land Transport Regulatory Commission Director-General, Salah Lozi, told state news agency Petra on Monday that the transport across the frontier was business as usual.

He said that the freight movement between the two neighbouring countries had not been impacted by a Saudi decision suspending entry to the country through land crossings.

The emergency Saudi measures, which were taken to protect public health after a more infectious strain of the COVID-19 pandemic emerged in a number of countries, excluded the transport of goods and supply chains from countries where the mutated virus had not appeared.
