China: Lockdown imposed in Wuhan city once again to combat COVID-19
Wuhan: A large number of cities in China, including Wuhan, have gone into lockdown as the nation is following 'Zero Covid' policy.
Lockdown in Wuhan remains significant as it is the first city in China where the virus outbreak was first recorded.
The viral outbreak soon spread across the world and wreaked havoc since 2020.
In Wuhan, more than 80,000 people in one district have been directed to stay indoors till Oct 30.
China has recorded more than 1,000 cases for the third straight day.
Earlier this month Mr Xi signalled that there would be no easing up of the zero-Covid policy, calling it a "people's war to stop the spread of the virus", reports BBC.
