He was speaking from the OR Tambo International Airport yesterday, where he clarified on the easing of restrictions on international travel.


Travel came to a halt as one of the means to curb spread of covid-19.


Mbalula says passenger ships also come with a few restrictions.


"Passenger ships are allowed to call in at any SA seaport but only for the following purposes: disembarking returning SA citizens, replenishment of fuel, stores and provisions, medical supplies, evacuation as well as search and rescue", he said.


There won't be any changes to public transport.
