Japan is considering attending 10,000 fans at the Tokyo Olympics

Press reports said Thursday that the organizers of the Olympic Games are considering allowing ten thousand fans in the Olympic venues in Tokyo.

A report published by the "Mainichi Shimbun" newspaper today, Thursday, said that the decision is planned to be taken at a meeting, likely to take place next Monday, with the participation of local organizers, local and federal governments, and the International Olympic Committee.

Kyodo news agency reported that the government intends not to allow more tickets to be sold than those already sold for the tournament, which will be held from July 23 to August 8.

All fans will be citizens of Japan, especially since foreign fans are not allowed to enter due to the precautionary measures to combat the Corona virus.

The Games are set to take place amid a strict hygiene concept, with the International Olympic Committee and local organizers pledging a safe organization amid widespread opposition from public opinion.
