Shanghai residents return to life, following months of strict lockdowns

Published

After weeks of some of the world’s strictest stay-at-home orders, many residents in the Chinese city of Shanghai are returning to life today

The country’s economic hub and global trade superpower were thrown into lockdown after Covid cases began to spike two months ago.

From midnight, locals are able to move freely throughout the city with a population of 25 million.

However, China’s Covid-zero policy remains in full swing, and those who catch the infectious virus still face mandatory quarantine or hospital.

Close contacts are also in the firing line, and may be taken into a quarantine facility, and forced into the area where they live into lockdown down again.

Shanghai’s spokesperson says this is the day many have been dreaming about for a long time and locals need to cherish and protect this newfound freedom.

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.


President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
