Storyline


Iran's Mehr News Agency said Saturday that internet service in the country was "partially restored," but users in Iran lost access again shortly afterward, according to a China Media Group (CMG) reporter.

"Now I'm working in the media center set up by the Iranian government for all media outlets in Iran. At the moment, no one has internet access, so many media workers have gathered here to continue their work. The Iranian government has not made any statement regarding when internet access will be restored," said CMG reporter Li Jiannan inTehran.

According to the Tasnim News Agency, Iran restored short message service (SMS) on Friday evening, and internet access will be restored gradually in a phased, step-by-step manner.

Iran imposed severe restrictions on access to the global internet and suspended SMS on Jan. 8, citing riots and terrorist attacks targeting civilians, security forces, and public buildings.
