North Korea has quarantined 380 foreigners in a bid to stop the coronavirus from breaking out, reports BBC.
The foreigners are mostly diplomats stationed in the capital Pyongyang, said news agency Yonhap, quoting the Korean Central Broadcasting Station.
Around 200 foreigners had already been confined to their compounds for the past 30 days - but as that came to an end, the quarantine has been extended.
There have not been any reported cases of Covid-19 in North Korea.
It's not known how long the new quarantine for foreigners will last.
The virus, which emerged in China, has spread to at least 29 countries.
