2 weeks before Olympics set to open, Japanese PM announces state of emergency for Tokyo - CBC.ca

Fans are banned from the Tokyo Olympics following a state of emergency on Thursday aimed at containing rising COVID-19 infections in the Japanese capital.

The widely expected move was made following talks between the government, Tokyo organizers and Olympic and paralympic representatives.

It was "regrettable" that the Games were going to be held in a limited format, Tokyo 2020 President Seiko Hashimoto told a briefing, adding her apologies to those who had bought tickets.

The ban comes just two weeks before the pandemic-postponed Olympics open.

Fans from abroad were banned several months ago.

More to come. 

Adblock test (Why?)
