TEHRAN, Dec. 29 (Xinhua) -- Floods and blizzard left at least four people dead and nine others missing across Iran over the past two days, the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) said on Monday.
In a statement published on its website, the IRCS said the victims were from the northwestern province of West Azarbaijan and the southwestern province of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad.
It said that of those missing, eight were in the southwestern province of Khuzestan and one in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad, adding that its rescuers were using all available capacities to find them.
Heavy rainfall and snow have swept through more than 20 Iranian provinces since Sunday, causing floods and the blockage of intercity roads.
