The government’s new communication, which falls under Defence Order No 19 of 2020, states the distance between tables should be at least two meters.
Malls, shops, banks, telecommunication companies, restaurants, hotels, coffee houses and water and electricity offices, based on the new communication, will only allow in people who are given clearance by the “Green Sanad” application that would prove a user is vaccinated.

The communication will go into effect Monday, October 18, 2021.

The 8th edition of the Rum International Marathon is scheduled for October 22, announced Nayef Bakhit, Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA).
In a press conference on Tuesday, Bakhit said that organizing the marathon at this time signals to the world that Jordanian tourism, namely in the “Golden Triangle” area (Wadi Rum, Petra and Aqaba), has returned to normalcy.
The marathon, which is organized by Unlimited Distances, is part of the authority’s efforts to attract international tourists to the region and will have a positive impact on Jordan in general and Aqaba in particular, he added.
About 84 runners from Arab and foreign countries will be participating in the marathon, which, Bakhit said, is a “new addition to the artistic, heritage and tourism activities that began in Aqaba, which is now a green zone.”
