Egyptian authorities have ordered its pyramids be disinfected to stop the coronavirus from spreading.
It's one of the latest moves made by the government, which has also imposed a nightly curfew for the next two weeks, as well as closing schools and stopping flights into the country, other than those repatriating travelers.
Egypt had more than 400 confirmed cases of the coronavirus and 21 deaths as of March 25.
Masked and suited cleaners wielding industrial sterilization equipment have been sanitizing the pyramids' entrances, ticket offices, and nearby roads.
Ashraf Mohie El-Din, director general of the pyramids, said to clean the pyramids required "specific materials" and cleaning had to be done "by a specialized team of excavators."
