The Iranian Minister of Communications has said that as of tonight, Iran’s internet connection will be “fully restored”, our colleagues from Euronews’ Persian and Arabic services report.
Over recent days, internet connection in Iran has been significantly disrupted, creating a near-communication blackout for many.
Internet-access advocacy group NetBlocks.org reported a “partial restoration in internet connectivity” this morning after what they described as a “~62 hour government-imposed shutdown.”
It said coverage remains “diminished in some areas and overall connectivity remains below ordinary levels.”
IRGC commander responsible for weapons transfers killed, IDF says
A commander of the Weapons Transfer Unit of the Quds Force, a branch of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), has been killed in a strike in western Iran, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have said in a post on X.
Commander Behnam Shahriyari was “responsible for all weapons transfers from the Iranian regime to its proxies across the Middle East,” the IDF said.
It comes as Iran’s Tasnim news agency says that five further IRGC members were killed in total following an Israeli strike on Khorramabad this morning.
