PANews reported on February 28 that market sources indicate real-time monitoring data shows network outages in parts of Iran, including Tehran, with network availability at only 54% of normal levels. This incident occurs amidst military strikes by the United States and Israel against the regime, which will limit our understanding of the situation on the ground.

The Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) of Iran reported that its website was down for several minutes after being attacked by hackers, but the problem has now been resolved and the website is back to normal operation.
