DUBAI: Oman will on Friday end a lockdown of its Muscat governorate — which includes the capital — that has been in place since April 10 as the sultanate eases its coronavirus containment measures, the state news agency reported on Wednesday.
It said a state committee had also ordered government entities to ensure at least 50% of employees are working from their offices from May 31.
