TIRANA, April 12 /ATA/ – The coastal city of Durres has seen its streets empty on this Easter Sunday under the lockdown measures designed to stem the spread of coronavirus in the country.
Deserted squares, streets, and other usually crowded areas and car-free roads is the view of the largest port city of Durres.
Durres citizens are strictly adhering to the stringent measures taken by the government in order to contain the spread of the Covid-19 in the country.
Durres Mayor Zhuljen Varfaj praised citizens for respecting the lockdown measures.
“Thank you for staying at your homes. Together we will make it,” Varfaj said.
Citizens in Durres and everywhere else across Albania have been self-quarantined since March 15 to abide by the stay-at-home orders after first coronavirus infected cases were confirmed in the country.
Albanian government acted to take restrictive measures early in a bid to stem the spread of the virus.
