Iran government organizations, schools to close for two days due to heat

The Iranian administration has declared two forthcoming days holidays due to unprecedented heat.

Rising temperatures due to climate change prompted the Iranian administration to announce government organizations and schools closed for Wednesday and Thursday this week.

Administration spokesman Ali Bahadori Jahromi said the decision had been taken with the health of citizens in mind and on a proposal from the Health Ministry.

Climate experts said July was the hottest month in recorded history around the globe.

A study showed that Earth had not experienced such temperatures in 120,000 years.
