Cinemas, parks and beaches, as well as many public attractions are currently closed temporarily, however shopping malls are being given guidelines in preparation for an as-yet unconfirmed reopening period.
The Department of Economic Development has announced that it’s consulting with stakeholders the possibility of reopening malls in Abu Dhabi.
