TUNIS, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Tunisia recorded Sunday its highest daily new coronavirus cases since the outbreak in the country on March 2, by reporting 625 new COVID-19 infections, said Tunisian Ministry of Health.

It said in a statement that the total number of confirmed cases in Tunisia reached 9,736.

And 2,386 patients have recovered from the virus while 155 others have died so far, according to a statement released by the ministry.

"The number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients reached 170 including 55 in intensive care units," it said.

The Tunisian government has imposed strict preventive measures shortly after the detection of the first coronavirus case.

The North African country has received several batches of medical aid from the Chinese government, Chinese foundations and companies since late March to help its fight against the pandemic. Enditem
