While it could be too early to claim that Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh had been fully cleaned up and reclaimed, the authorities have so far closed down more than 500 violating stores and issued notices of imminent closure to over 1,000 other stores, said Municipality Director General Ahmad Al-Manfouhi.

He said three areas will be handed to the Public Authority for Manpower on a temporary basis until permanent bachelor cities are built.
