AfricaPress-mozambique: The recent weather forecast of torrential rain has probably made Londoners wish that they could be abroad, but a sunny trip to foreign land could be some way off, especially if you’re planning to go to certain destinations.
Unfortunately, no new countries have been added to the green list and in more unfortunate news, there have been updates made to the red list.
The latest foreign office guidelines have seen seven countries in total get added to the red list.
Arrivals from Egypt, Sri Lanka, Costa Rica, Bahrain, Sudan, Trinidad and Tobago and Afghanistan will now be required to complete hotel quarantine at a cost of £1,750 per person.
It means the red list will increase from 43 to 50 countries.
