Doha: Citizens and residents no longer have to wear masks while driving with family members in a car, stated the Qatar Cabinet in its latest directives. 

As the country takes steps to gradually lift the restrictions on May 28, in its first phase it has announced that all citizens and residents have to wear masks on leaving the house for any reason, unless the person is alone while driving a vehicle or with his family. 

It also added that activating EHTERAZ on smartphones is mandatory when leaving the house for any reason.
