NCOC decides to curtail inbound flights to Pakistan from May 5 to May 20

The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) has decided to curtail inbound flights to Pakistan from May 5 to May 20 amid the country’s worsening coronavirus situation. Besides this, the NCOC also allowed the import of 20 cryogenic tanks and decided to shut down the scrap industry of Misri Shah so oxygen could be diverted to the healthcare sector instead.

The forum in its meeting chaired by Minister for Development and Planning Asad Umar decided to review the restrictions on May 18. The meeting also decided that vaccination of people aged between 40 and 49 would begin from May 3.
