Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity in Iran from January 2, 2026, to January 27, 2026. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents dates. The green line representing Iran's connectivity remains normal most of the time period, with a sharp drop on the evening of January 8, when connectivity falls from above 90% to near zero. Connectivity remains almost entirely offline for an extended period, with only minimal and sporadic activity, before a limited restoration appears at the end of the period on January 27 under heavy filtering. A red horizontal arrow labelled β€œSHUTDOWN” marks the duration of the disruption, with an annotation on the right reading β€œHeavily filtered intermittent connectivity.” The disruption aligns with a nationwide internet shutdown imposed by authorities amid unrest. The minimum and current connectivity levels are shown as 1% and 84%, respectively. The chart has a dark background and includes the NetBlocks logo in the lower left corner.
