Iran to enforce dress code in cities

Iranian police announced they were resuming patrols to enforce a strict dress code that requires women to cover their hair in public.

Many women in Iran stopped covering their heads after the protests sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini. But police now say morality patrols are back.
