Overview
- NetBlocks reported a shift from near-total blackout to a tightly filtered return that restored access to some services on Sunday after more than 200 hours offline, following earlier readings of about 2% of normal connectivity.
- Authorities said they have reasserted control and reopened schools and universities, with state media announcing a progressive restoration of online access through domestic services.
- Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei urged the nation to “break the back of the seditious” and labeled President Donald Trump “guilty” of the deaths, as judicial officials promised rapid trials and warned that some charges could carry the death penalty.
- Iran Human Rights cites at least 3,428 verified fatalities with other estimates far higher, while Amnesty and Human Rights Watch describe verified videos of sustained live fire on crowds and hospitals overwhelmed with the wounded.
- Large solidarity rallies by the Iranian diaspora drew thousands in France, and regional pressure from Gulf states has tempered prospects of U.S. military action after earlier threats from Trump, who later signaled restraint.
