TOKYO—Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said Monday that his country is adding 14 more countries, including Russia, Peru, and Saudi Arabia, to the entry ban list as the country steps up border control as the CCP virus infections continued to spread in the country.
Japan has already banned entry from more than 70 other countries, banning foreigners with records of visiting those countries in the past two weeks, while invalidating visas for the rest of the world. The additional step on the 14 countries will take effect Wednesday, Abe said.
