Iran’s internet is flickering back to life after a brutal 88-day blackout, but the damage is already done. As of Tuesday afternoon, May 26, 2026, connectivity slowly started returning, though it’s still just a fraction of what it used to be. NetBlocks, the watchdog tracking global internet traffic, confirmed that Iran had been completely cut off from the outside world for a staggering 2,093 hours, the longest such outage ever recorded for any country.
