Fines of AED 2,000 will be issued to those leaving their homes between 10pm and 6am for non-essential purposes.

Abu Dhabi Police say that patrols will also be intensified to ensure the public’s adherence to the rules, as authorities continue efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19.

They also urged residents to continue social distancing measures and to wear masks and gloves when out.
