Coronavirus: Iraq Disinfects Baghdad's Abu Hanifa Mosque

Iraq's civil defense members disinfect the Abu Hanifa Mosque, a prominent mosque and shrine in Baghdad, as part of the measures to fight the spread of coronavirus, Monday, April 13. On Sunday, Iraq recorded 1,352 cases and 76 deaths from the novel coronavirus. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Monday that his country welcomes an apparent agreement among Iraq’s Shia, Sunni and Kurdish groups to form a new government, adding it would need to be capable of confronting the coronavirus pandemic, helping the economy and bringing arms under control. “We welcome that Shia, Sunni, and Kurdish political leaders seem to have arrived at a consensus on government formation, and hope the new government puts Iraq’s interests first and meets the needs of the Iraqi people,” Pompeo said in a statement.
