He also denied that case numbers were 19 times the official figure.

The same quarantine restrictions will also apply to Poland on the same date.

Meanwhile the number of cases of Covid-19 reported in North Cyprus on Thursday was four, Health Minister Ali Pilli said. 

One was a ferry passenger from Turkey, two were contacts of infected passengers and were already in quarantine and one case was local, the minister said.

This brings the total number of cases of Covid-19 in North Cyprus to 761.
