The Government has removed five countries from its travel-advisory 'green list', following a rise in the number of Covid-19 cases in those nations.

The move means that any Irish people who are in Malta, Cyprus, Gibraltar, Monaco, or San Marino will now have to self-isolate for 14 days upon their return to the country.
