RIYADH, June 29 (Xinhua) -- Saudi Arabia registered on Monday 3,943 new coronavirus cases, bringing the total infections to 186,436.

The kingdom registered 48 fatalities in the last 24 hours, bringing the death toll to 1,599.
Saudi Arabia and China have supported each other in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. In mid-February, the kingdom offered generous support to China to help fight the deadly virus at the early stage of its outbreak.
On March 11, Saudi Arabia delivered to the Chinese city of Wuhan a shipment of medical aid.
As the virus raged in Saudi Arabia, a team of eight Chinese medical experts visited the kingdom on April 15 to assist its anti-coronavirus fight. On April 26, the two sides signed a deal for expanding Saudi Arabia's coronavirus testing capacity. Enditem
