More than 75% of Saturday's new imported cases on Chinese mainland linked to Russia

China on Saturday reported 97 more imported COVID-19 cases, at least 72 of which are from Russia, according to the National Health Commission.

Two major clusters were detected – one in Shanghai with 51 cases and one in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province with 21 cases. Both clusters were composed of Chinese nationals.

Moreover, the construction of a temporary hospital in Suifenhe City, Heilongjiang Province, has been completed, and the medical team has been set up.

The Chinese Embassy in Moscow reminded Chinese citizens in Russia to strictly abide by Russia's home quarantine rules to avoid the risk of infection during long-distance travel.

A team of 10 Chinese medical experts arrived in Moscow on Saturday afternoon to help Russia fight the COVID-19 outbreak. They brought with them urgently needed medical supplies donated by China, including surgical masks, medical masks, N95 masks and protective suits.
