Iran Blames Cyberattacks for Internet Disruptions Across Country
Ahmed Emam
Iran's Minister of Information and Communications Technology announced that recent disruptions to the country's internet services were caused by cyberattacks originating from abroad.
Speaking to state media, Minister Seyed Sattar Hashemi said, 'The interruptions in internet connectivity across several regions of the country are the result of external cyberattacks targeting our infrastructure.' He added that technical teams were working to mitigate the impact and restore stable services as quickly as possible.
The minister did not specify which countries or groups were allegedly behind the attacks, nor did he provide detailed information about the scale or precise nature of the cyber incidents.
Internet outages have been reported in various Iranian cities over the past few days, raising concerns among businesses, citizens, and digital rights advocates about access to information and communication.
Iran has frequently accused foreign actors of conducting cyber operations aimed at destabilizing its systems. Meanwhile, international cybersecurity experts have long noted the complex cyber conflict involving Iran, regional rivals, and Western powers.
Authorities assured the public that essential services remained operational despite the disruptions.
Further investigations into the cyberattacks are ongoing.
