Iran's Digital Revival: Internet Reconnects after 90-Day Blackout

Netblocks reports partial restoration of internet in Iran after a prolonged blackout. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian ordered the reopening of international internet access following a near-90-day shutdown amid geopolitical tensions involving the U.S. and Israel.

In a recent development, the internet monitoring group Netblocks has announced a partial restoration of internet connectivity in Iran. The announcement came through a post on X on Tuesday.

This connectivity follows an extended blackout period that lasted nearly 90 days. The blackout was reportedly a response to the geopolitical tensions surrounding the U.S.-Israeli situation with Iran.
