A total of 200 people from the Romani neighborhood of Iztok in Kyustendil, which has been closed since June 19th due to the large number of infected people there, will be allowed to take part in cherry picking. The names of the workers have been submitted to the authorities by employers.
The neighborhood is surrounded by checkpoints and all measures are being taken to limit the infection, said Kyustendil Regional Governor Viktor Yanev. According to his data, 19 cases were reported for the past 24 hours, which is less than the previous days and gives hope that the infection is under control.
Chairman of the local "Vasil Levski" community center Petar Igov said that quarantine measures were harsh and illegal and he would contest them in court.
