PHNOM PENH (Reuters) – Cambodia reported 12 new cases of coronavirus on Tuesday, doubling its tally to 24.
Of the new cases, 11 were people who had traveled to Malaysia for a religious event at a mosque, a statement from the Ministry of Health said.
Two others who had traveled to the same ceremony had tested positive for the virus in Cambodia over the weekend.
