Iran and coronavirus, turkish airlines

Hi guys
I have posted it in turkish miles subforum but maybe it's more visible here.
Hope you can help me in this 24 hours remaining for me.We are departing from lyon, France tomorrow toward Iran (layoff in Istanbul) for one month with my 2 French young children (5 month, 5 y.o). I’m Persian & American. It’s is a round ticket bought directly from Turkish airlines. I would like to cancel this flight and get the refund. Here are the latest condition on coronavirus:

Turkey has closed all land borders with Iran and only flights to Iran ( and not from iran) are possible from Feb23 rd. In the announce, they say that it’s temporary and they don’t mention any date.

Can I use any way (bought ticket with a gold visa card which comes with a travel insurance) to be refunded?

If my children get sick over there, I believe that French repatriation is not easily possible.
what should i do?
thanks for any advise
(P.S. I have catch a normal caugh these days without any fever)
