Heavy snow and winds in several parts of Iran in the past few days have closed many roads and disrupted transport.

Yesterday, Saturday, the Iranian Red Crescent reported that six people were found dead due to the landslides, while 16 are still missing.

Noteworthy, state television said on Saturday that several climbers remain unaccounted since Friday when two deaths were reported, while the reported number of those who are still missing has increased as concerned families contact authorities,
