Everest stands on the border between China and Nepal
China says it will set up a "line of separation" at the summit of Mount Everest in order to prevent climbers mingling with others from Nepal.
It comes less than a week after mountaineers and authorities at base camp in Nepal warned of rising cases of Covid among climbers.
Everest stands on the border between China and Nepal and mountaineers climb it from both sides.
It is not yet clear how China will enforce the rules on the mountain.
A team of Tibetan mountaineering guides is being dispatched to the summit to set up the line. It will be in place before the arrival of a group of Chinese climbers who are currently on their way.
