Iranian authorities partially restore internet access after an almost three-month nationwide shutdown that began during heightened tensions in the US–Israel conflict. Multiple outlets report that services resume on Tuesday, bringing connectivity from near-total blackout levels to a limited “partial restoration,” with web monitoring groups such as NetBlocks noting traffic rises to roughly a third of typical levels. Reporting from users and observers indicates the restoration is uneven: home broadband starts working in some areas, while mobile internet remains largely blocked. Many residents continue to rely on VPNs to reach international websites and social media. Several sources also emphasize that the reconnection is not clearly permanent, with experts warning it is too early to determine whether full connectivity will return soon. User accounts described slow and spotty service, and restrictions on major platforms such as YouTube and Instagram persist. Some reporting frames the timing alongside ongoing diplomatic efforts to reduce tensions, while other outlets note the broader regional context of US–Iran hostilities. Overall, the restart is limited and contested in practice, with residents expressing cautious or lukewarm responses and still facing significant barriers to normal online access.
