Iran’s nationwide internet disruption has passed the 48-hour mark, according to the London-based monitoring organization NetBlocks, leaving large parts of the country cut off from online communication as regional tensions escalate.

According to NetBlocks, connectivity levels in Iran had dropped to near-total shutdown levels, severely restricting access to digital services and limiting contact between residents and relatives abroad, News.Az reports, citing Iran International.

In a statement posted on X, the group said internet shutdowns have frequently been used by Iranian authorities during periods of unrest.

It noted that a previous disruption in January lasted several weeks and coincided with what it described as serious human rights violations being concealed from public view.
