Tehran, IRNA - Head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) Pirhossein Kolivand has rejected the claims with regard to the exclusion of medicines and health parameters in the sanctions list.

There are cruel effects of sanctions on all social and economic parameters of the country, Kolivand told IRNA in an interview published on Wednesday.

They lie that medicine and health parameters are not on the sanction list, he said.

Of course, the Red Crescent Society has used all its power to reduce and remove obstacles in this regard.

He noted that due to sanctions, Iran has no night vision helicopter.

Some helicopters also need renovation, although the government has provided effective help in this field and the renovation has started.
