Internet blackout leaves anxious Iranians in the dark

PARIS: Iran’s internet is still “around 1 percent of ordinary levels,” monitor Netblocks said on Thursday, leaving most Iranians struggling to access independent news or communicate with the outside world. Iranian authorities shut off internet access on Saturday after Israel and the US began air strikes, plunging the country into an information blackout. “Iran’s internet blackout has now exceeded 120 hours with connectivity still flatlining around 1 percent of ordinary levels,” internet monitor Netblocks said in a message posted on social media platform X on Thursday.
