Mozambique Suspends Visas For Travellers From China

The Mozambican government has suspended issuing visas upon arrival to travellers from China in order curb the spread of coronavirus.

The decision was taken at cabinet meeting held on Tuesday.

Minister of Justice Helena Kida said the measure was temporary.

Mozambican students studying in China have requested to be evacuated from the country until the outbreak of the deadly virus is controlled.

It is unclear whether they will be allowed back in the country.

There are several suspected coronavirus cases that have been reported in Kenya, Ethiopia and Ivory Coast.
