First Minister Mark Drakeford has warned the Welsh public they “cannot go back to the way we were” as he urged them to reduce the number of people they see each day

Wales’s new national measures to combat coronavirus have come into force following the end of the country’s 17-day firebreak lockdown.

Groups of up to four people can now meet up in cafes, pubs and restaurants while shops, gyms, hairdressers and places of worship will also reopen.

Supermarkets can again sell non-essential items while people will only be allowed to meet up inside homes with members of one other household if they have joined into a “bubble”.

A 10pm curfew on alcohol sales will carry over from before the firebreak, with people required to prove their home address in bars following concerns people in England could flout its own lockdown and travel to Wales for a drink.
