Iran offline for more than 12 hours: Monitor

Iran has been cut off from the internet for more than 12 hours, a connectivity monitor has said, as authorities restrict access citing Israel’s “misuse” of the network. “The measure continues to hinder residents’ access to information at a critical time,” NetBlocks said in a post on X. Authorities have announced curbs on the internet as well as on social media platforms, accusing Israel of misusing them for military purposes.
