After the discovery of a new coronavirus strain named Omicron, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) issued a new travel alert for Category C nations on Sunday in an effort to prevent cases of new coronavirus variants in Pakistan.

The CAA has issued a new travel advisory for 17 countries, including South Africa, Hong Kong, Iraq, Namibia, and Ukraine.

Passengers from nations classified as C would need approval from the National Command and Operations Centre (NCOC) to travel. “They would be forced to give proof of full Covid-19 vaccination,” the CAA stated.
