Iran schools reopen: Gov’t seeks to reassure concerned parents

Iran’s COVID-19 death toll is yet to drop below 100 a day and daily infections remain close to 2,000.

In Iran, there is a tussle between the government and the provinces over how and when schools should reopen.

Millions of students headed back to schools across Iran on Saturday.

The schools were shut since early March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
