The notice said that residents in the city are required to stay in their homes through the end of Sunday.SEOUL - Authorities in the North Korean capital Pyongyang have ordered a five-day lockdown due to rising cases of an unspecified respiratory illness, Seoul-based NK News reported on Wednesday , citing a government notice.
On Tuesday, the website reported that Pyongyang residents appeared to be stocking up on goods in anticipation of stricter measures. It is unclear if other areas of the country have imposed new lockdowns. The secretive country has never confirmed how many people caught Covid-19, apparently because it lacks the means to conduct widespread testing.
