Iran is facing an almost internet blackout as reported by Netblocks, a non-governmental organization that specializes in monitoring internet governance. This disruption was noted on Wednesday evening local time.

NetBlocks has reported that Iran is currently undergoing a near-total internet blackout, as indicated by live network data.

The NGO reported that the incident follows previous partial internet disruptions and occurs amid rising military tensions with Israel, following a series of alternating missile strikes.

At the time of reporting, several Iranian websites, including IRNA and Fars News Agency, were inaccessible.
