Iran's internet blackout extends into second week: NetBlocks

Iran is in a regime-imposed national internet blackout for over a week, isolating citizens while officials maintain access. Internet traffic is at just 1% of normal levels, according to data from NetBlocks.

The blackout hinders communication for Iranians during a critical time, with U.S. and Israeli airstrikes ongoing. Citizens can't share updates or document events, raising concerns about the fog of war and potential cyberattacks from Iran.

Analysts warn that this disruption may lead to increased cyber activity from Iranian-aligned groups. The situation remains fluid, with the potential for further escalation in both military and cyber realms.
