Kazakhstan has ordered some entertainment venues in its biggest city Almaty to close amid fears of a resurgence in coronavirus cases, according to Reuters.
Moreover, shopping malls, restaurants and government offices have been instructed to work shorter hours, following a spike in coronavirus cases since a lockdown was eased.
The Central Asian nation has already tightened restrictions in three provinces this month, after ending a nationwide state of emergency in mid-May, after fresh cases of Covid-19 raised fears of a second wave of the virus.
