FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Jordan’s donkeys bear the brunt of the crisis as coronavirus cripples tourism” – below is their description.
Herds of hard-working #donkeys once carried hordes of tourists on the rocky paths of #Jordan’s #Petra, but visitor numbers crashed amid the #pandemic and the loyal animals now bear the brunt of the crisis.

But in March 2020, the famous tourist destination was closed, and the crucial income from the tourists dried up.
