Iran’s nationwide internet blackout has now reached its 27th consecutive day, with domestic connectivity still severely limited and only a tiny fraction of normal traffic visible, according to global monitoring group NetBlocks. Authorities continue to enforce stringent restrictions on digital communications across the country.
The blackout, one of the longest and most extensive in recent Iranian history, has effectively cut ordinary users off from global online services and information, leaving many citizens unable to access international websites, messaging platforms, or social media. Reports indicate that most internet traffic in Iran remains at only a few percent of typical levels.
NetBlocks and digital rights observers note that the shutdown has persisted despite intermittent reports of partial restoration attempts, with connectivity still far below normal. The extended outage continues to disrupt communication, business operations and public access to news, while analysts and rights groups raise concerns about the impact on everyday life and civic engagement amid ongoing political and social tensions.
