In addition, Iran issued a stern warning about the coronavirus, suggesting that 'millions' could die if people in the Islamic Republic ignored health guidance.

Many Iranians have ignored calls by health authorities to stay home, but the company has shut down the country's most sacred Shia Muslim sites and temples in Tehran and Kom, which is home to Iran's coronavirus outbreak.



Iran has so far struggled to reduce the number of infections and blames US sanctions for blocking its ability to fight the virus.

A state television journalist, who is a medical doctor, was warned after walking into the courtyard of two major shrines of the Shia loyalist who were shut down for fear of the virus.



Specifically, the recently released prisoners could be protesters arrested during anti-government protests in November, and all of the inmates are likely to be re-arrested on April 3.

The total number of deaths in Iran from the new coronavirus reached 988 out of 16,169 infections, making it one of the worst national outbreaks outside China, where the new virus was discovered at the end of the first year.
