Our reporter from northern Iraq, Naseem Sadiq, indicated that the Governor of Duhok confirmed in his statement that 6 of the 12 people infected by COVID-19 cases, had been cured and the others are on their way to a full recovery. It is expected that soon it will be announced that Duhok is free of Covid 19.


In other governorates, people still don't adhere to instructions not to assemble, so the government in the region has decided to extend the curfews for more days.

Mr Sadiq said that the Minister of Health mentioned in his statement that there are 41 COVID-19 patients, including 17 women and a number of children from different ages.
