  • COVID-19 pandemic in India
    • India reports 78,761 new COVID-19 cases over the past 24 hours, thus marking the highest single-day rise in case numbers recorded anywhere in the world. The record was previously set by the United States, which reported 77,638 new cases on 17 July. This puts India's overall case tally to 3.5 million. (France 24)
  • COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea

Restaurants and bakeries can operate dine-in services until 9 pm, and only takeaway and delivery will be permitted from 9 pm to 5 am. For franchise coffee chains, only takeout or delivery will be permitted regardless of operating hours. These restrictions exist until 7 September. (Yonhap News Agency)
