Iran’s government cut off internet for 240 hours in March 2026 amid regional tensions, affecting 90 million people.
Iran experienced a nationwide internet blackout for 240 hours—about one-third of 2026—according to Netblocks, marking one of the most severe government-imposed shutdowns globally and the second longest in the country’s history.
The disruption, which reduced connectivity to 1% of normal levels, cut off roughly 90 million Iranians from the global internet.
The outage began in early March and coincided with intensified regional hostilities involving the U.S. and Israel.
Netblocks attributed the shutdown to state-led efforts to control information and suppress dissent.
Russia’s President Putin reportedly offered mediation to ease tensions in West Asia during a call with U.S. President Trump, though details were not disclosed.
The blackout has disrupted daily life, education, business, and communication, underscoring growing concerns over digital rights during geopolitical crises.
