Ongoing protests over economic hardship, currency collapse, and inflation have prompted Iranian authorities to impose regional and nationwide internet restrictions, including a reported total cutoff in Khuzestan province on October 30, 2026, as monitored by NetBlocks. These measures build on earlier 2026 shutdowns tied to January demonstrations and a February-May conflict period, with authorities advancing a Huawei-supported national isolation system for full domestic control. Partial restorations have created tiered access favoring select institutions, while ordinary users face persistent limits on global connectivity and VPNs. Upcoming protest dynamics, security responses, and any escalation in unrest remain key variables influencing the timing and scope of further blackouts.
