[IN PICTURES] Republic Day in times of COVID-19

Malta celebrates the 46th anniversary since it became a republic 

As Malta celebrated Republic Day, this year’s activities have been overshadowed by COVID-19 preventive measures. 

While in previous years people would descend to the capital city to watch the yearly parade, this year’s activities have been diluted due to the pandemic.
