Authorities in Iran have shut down mobile internet service in some provinces over security concerns, the semiofficial ILNA news agency reported Wednesday.
The report quotes an unnamed official in the country's Telecommunications Ministry as saying the cut could be extended to more provinces if security officials decide it's necessary.
NetBlocks.org, which monitors cybersecurity and internet governance, confirmed ongoing mobile internet disruption in parts of Iran starting Wednesday morning.
