As Indonesia is battling a Covid crisis and locals are struggling to find oxygen and hospital beds, Bali decided to impose strict <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/coronavirus">coronavirus</a> regulations on tourists.

Three tourists in Bali were deported from the country after they were found flouting Covid rules in the open while vacationing in the tourist-friendly place.

These visitors were from the US, Russia, and Ireland. When they were found without face masks in the public spaces, the three visitors were out on a flight back to their home country.

"They broke minimum virus rules requiring face masks during the emergency restriction period," said Jamaruli Manihuruk, head of&nbsp;Bali's legal and justice office, which oversees immigration enforcement.

Not just these three, another woman from Russia was deported back to her home country for refusing to self-quarantine following a positive Covid test. She was allowed to stay in Bali till she recovered from the virus and was immediately put on a flight back to Russia as soon as she was declared virus-free.

These restrictions are now an important part of the country’s road to being virus-free. Indonesia has been struggling with the wide spread of the Delta variant, which has caused a record increase in coronavirus cases.

The government, last week, rolled out a set of fresh guidelines for people, to ensure the country is able to break the chain of Covid infections.

On Monday, Indonesia reported a record 40,427 new infections and 891 deaths in the last 24 hours.
