Iran has decided to start clearing streets nationwide to fight coronavirus. The measure will be carried out by the country’s security forces. In an edict to Major General Baqeri on Thursday, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei emphasized the need for the establishment of a “health and treatment base” to prevent further spread of the ongoing epidemic in the country.
