Coronavirus July 2, minute by minute: More than 10.6 million cases of covid-19 worldwide

Havana will begin a partial reopening on Friday, said the prime minister of Cuba, Marrero Cruz, on Wednesday night.

Cuba closed its borders in March, canceling all regular commercial flights to and from the island, and was subject to strict confinement after three Italian tourists were diagnosed with coronavirus.

But recently a gradual reduction in restrictions began as infections decreased.

The reopening in Havana will allow restaurants, bars and other businesses to operate again, but with limited capacity, the prime minister said. Residents of Havana will also be able to visit the beach for the first time in almost three months.

However, international travel to and from most of Cuba will remain suspended.

The main island of Cuba, where Havana is located, remains closed to international tourists. However, visitors will be able to travel to five offshore islands, which the Cuban government has developed for tourism.

As of Wednesday, the country had registered 86 deaths and 2,348 cases of coronavirus, according to Cuban health officials.
