    Summary: We introduce the class of countably \(I\)-compact spaces as a proper subclass of countably \(S\)-closed spaces. A topological space \((X,T)\) is called countably \(I\)-compact if every countable cover of \(X\) by regular closed subsets contains a finite subfamily whose interiors cover \(X\). It is shown that a space is countably \(I\)-compact if and only if it is extremally disconnected and countably \(S\)-closed. Other characterizations are given in terms of covers by semiopen subsets and other types of subsets. We also show that countable \(I\)-compactness is invariant under almost open semi-continuous surjections.
