Iran 30 days into internet blackout, isolating millions amid war
Iran’s blackout limits global internet access while domestic intranet supports local services; users rely on costly alternatives, with 696 hours of disruption reported by NetBlocks.
- Iran's nationwide internet blackout reached its 30th consecutive day on Sunday, leaving millions cut off from global information since the war with the United States and Israel began.
- Internet monitoring group NetBlocks reported the nationwide censorship measure has continued into its fifth week, totaling 696 hours of restricted access since the conflict escalated on February 28.
- While the domestic intranet remains operational for banking and local messaging apps, access to the global internet is severely restricted, forcing many Iranian users to rely on state-controlled platforms.
- Tehran marketing manager Arshia, 37, expressed concern about permanent isolation, stating, "When even foreign TV channels are cut off due to signal interference, we don't have access to any news except the state TV."
- For many, particularly those with relatives in Turkey, communication has become expensive and limited as users struggle with unreliable workarounds amid the ongoing restrictions.
