Israeli drones strike near Karaj, target air defenses, reports say

Users in numerous Iranian cities told Iran international that they are experiencing significant internet disruptions.

Multiple witnesses said that accessing social media platforms like Instagram and messaging services such as WhatsApp has become extremely difficult.

Internet slowdowns and partial blackouts have made it hard for citizens to share updates, coordinate aid, and stay informed about unfolding events.

Iran could force a ceasefire by launching 2,000 missiles, especially hypersonic ones, in coming nights, lawmaker Ahmad Bakhshayesh Ardestani said.

“If Iran can fire 2,000 missiles—especially hypersonic ones—over the next one or two nights, rest assured that the whole world, including France, Germany, and even Britain, will come and demand a ceasefire,” he said.
