1. Israel is targeting both military targets and civilian energy infrastructure in Iran (natural gas production, refineries, fuel depots).
2. General chaos prevails. People are trying to find refuge in smaller towns and are leaving Tehran and other major cities if they can.
3. The government is blocking some roads and limiting the gasoline ration to 25 liters per day, aiming to restrict people's movement.
4. People are attempting to purchase and stock up on essential items, such as food and other necessities.
5. The Internet is throttled to the point where almost nothing works. Full traffic is being blocked to some large datacenters like Hetzner, which many in the country use to host their VPN servers. Very few VPNs work, and only sporadically.
6. Our own VPN data shows that the number of active devices and connection attempts is at an all-time high, but data transmission is significantly lower than usual.

Iran faced significant internet outages on March 2nd, 4th, and 7th. While the ICT Minister attributed the disruptions to a physical fiber disconnection on the #DeltaTelecom route, the recurring nature of these issues suggests there may be more to the story. #IranInternetStatus #InternetOutages @IODA @cloudflareradar
Iran is facing a significant outage once again, along the fiber route from Iran -> Azerbaijan -> Georgia. The affected route is presumed to be AS29049 (DELTA-TELECOM).
Heavy congestion is reported on the other upstreams. #IranInternetStatus
