Iran news in brief, January 13, 2021 Iran: Coronavirus Death Toll Exceeds 200,600 Over 200,600 people have died of coronavirus across Iran’s 31 provinces, according to reports tallied by the Iranian opposition People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran as of Tuesday. The official death toll declared by the regime stands at 56,360 around a third of the actual figure.
