"The move falls within the efforts made by the relevant state authorities to counter the Covid-19 pandemic, curb the virus' spread and ensure the compliance of all Emiratis and residents with the instructions taken by the relevant authorities," Al Zaabi added.
Legal action has been taken against the violators who have been detained and orders have been served on their violation, he explained.
