Iran Official Suggests Trump Capture Over Protest Support
Iran is experiencing its most severe internet shutdown to date, impacting both global and domestic online services. Cybersecurity experts note this blackout signifies an escalation in digital repression by Iranian authorities amid ongoing unrest. The purpose of this shutdown is to prevent protesters from coordinating and to conceal evidence of state violence from the world, with experts drawing comparisons to previous communication blackouts. The current situation has raised grave concerns about potential lethal repression by security forces, as the blackout hinders efforts to assess casualties and verify reports of violence.
