General Security allows Lebanese citizens to return from Syria

The General Directorate of the General Security on Thursday allowed Lebanese citizens and their family members who are stranded in Syria to return to Lebanon through Al Masnaa and Aboudieh border crossings on 10/03/2021 starting from 9:00 AM until 6:00 PM.

Pursuant to the decision of the Prime Minister’s office with regard to updating the COVID-19 response strategy and the stages of gradually easing lockdown restrictions, Lebanese citizens are allowed to return provided they submit a negative PCR test result which will have to be carried out no later than 96 hours before arrival, the directorate said in a statement.

They should do the PCR test again on the border with the help of teams dispatched by the Ministry of Public Health, it added.
