24-hour curfew during Eid holidays in Iraq

The Dhaka Times Desk In order to prevent the spread of the deadly corona virus, Iraq has issued a curfew for 24 hours day and night during the few days of public holidays that will be held across the country on the occasion of the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr.

This 24-hour curfew will continue till May 28 starting next Sunday. The American media CNN reported in a report that the Iraqi government announced such a decision through a statement from the Iraqi Council of Ministers on Tuesday. A partial curfew continues to be imposed in the country to prevent the spread of Corona.

Although the curfew was imposed to prevent the spread of Corona, the Iraqi government continued to reduce the period after the start of the month of Ramadan. Now the curfew is running from 5 pm to 5 am local time in the country. However, the country's government has taken such a decision to prevent public gathering during the Eid holiday.

However, after the curfew began to be eased, the number of people diagnosed with the deadly novel coronavirus, Covid-19, in Iraq began to rise at an alarming rate.

It should be noted that next week more than 100 million Muslims around the world will celebrate the holy Eid-ul-Fitr.
