Restriction on public assemblies of more than 100 imposed until Feb. 1 in Greece

Greek authorities on Tuesday morning announced another prohibition against public outdoor assemblies exceeding 100 people, with the pandemic-related measure taking effect until Monday, Feb. 1.
In justifying the extension of a similar restriction, law enforcement officials cited a recommendation by a national committee for public health protection.
The measure will not affect any previously scheduled assembly or the presence of people outside stores and shopping malls.
Current measures and restrictions, such as the mandatory wearing of face masks and public distancing outdoors, are still in effect
