The United States has announced that it is “dismantling a sophisticated Iranian network” used to obtain sensitive military technology. english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-...

This is a very good description of Mohsen Rezaei. We also mustn't forget the role he played in transforming the IRGC from a ragtag group of radical soldiers into a proper paramilitary force.

🗓️ Three months ago today #Iran shut off access to the global internet. While connectivity has now largely returned, metrics indicate that users still face heavy filtering, similar to the interim period between the January protests and the start of the war.

The source said there were serious ambiguities over how much Khamenei knows about the talks and the extent of the negotiating team’s understanding with the Trump administration. www.iranintl.com/en/202605283...

⌛️ It's now the 87th consecutive day of #Iran's internet blackout which has been in place for over 2064 hours. The measure has eliminated any transparency around executions, adding to the inhumane conditions and daily uncertainty faced by jailed critics, dissidents and tourists.

Considering the recent news, I think it's a good time to share this again.

Uh, they don’t and that’s why we are in this mess. There are two Irans, we just keep talking to wrong one.

The devil on my right shoulder is telling me to create a Truth Social account just so I can call him a coward and an incompetent pos to his face

Why do I feel like suicide rates in Iran will skyrocket again if a deal is agreed upon and announced…

If trump is stupid and desperate enough - emphasis on and - to actually believe he’s going to make a deal and/or IRGC is going to stand by their word then he absolutely deserves every single bad thing that happens to him.

So far in 2026, at least 655 Iranians have been executed by the Islamic Republic, which totals more than 5 executions per day. The actual figure is likely much higher. While the internet blackout has continued for 85 days, 34 Iranians have been executed so far in May. iranrights.org

“Hello, I came back for a moment with really slow just say that they’re raiding cafes again ‘n shutting them down for hijab. I also know of two workers that were arrested and taken away for not wearing hijab and recently have been cursing at the hijabless in rallies. All organized movement from IR.”

I just wish I wasn’t so….useless…

Every time I go to X I feel nothing but heartache and rage

🗓️ Network data show #Iran's internet blackout is entering its 13th week after surpassing 2016 hours of digital isolation from the outside world. Daily life for most Iranians is now shaped by the loss of opportunities and access to information others can reach in seconds.

I’m in one of those moods again The moods in which I’m probably unreasonably feeling hopeless and powerless

My paternal cousin just called unexpectedly He said that among other things that 1GB of VPN now costs anywhere from 800k toman to 1 million toman, and that in the last week about 7 or 8 people were executed in our own city

📢 Metrics show the internet blackout in #Iran has now entered its 83rd day with international networks largely barred for over 1968 hours. A free and open internet is central to the protection of life, liberty and public accountability.

82 days.

“I connected just to say I, an Iranian living under the IR couldn’t finish my studies and left uni final term, saw so much incompt and misogyny at work I quit, And now they’ve created a case for the brave and noble man I want to marry so now I’m const afraid they’ll come and take away my last joy.”

Words cannot even begin to describe how much I hate the Islamic Republic and everyone in it and involved with it. ریدم تو دهن تک تکون کثافتای پررو! ریدم تو دهن همتون آشغالای لجن!

The historic Ameri House Hotel in Kashan, one of the city's largest traditional hospitality complexes and Iran's largest historic mansion, was forced to close for failing to comply with the mandatory hijab laws. iranwire.com/en/news/1526...

Amnesty International reports that the Islamic Republic carried out a record 2,159 executions in 2025, a figure that pushed global executions to their highest level since 1981. www.amnesty.org/en/latest/ne...

The saying goes that you can wake someone who is sleeping, but it's impossible to wake someone who is pretending to sleep.

The plot thickens

You are seeing the hosts of the IRIB live national TV channels holding AKs, and in one broadcast, they instruct viewers on how to use them and even fire a shot at the UAE flag in the studio.

Hopefully Ežeī, Vahidi and every other godforsaken head of IRGC and IR will soon join their beloved supreme leader in hell and rot there.

In 2026, a country of over 90 million people has been without internet access for almost 80 days, and to an extent for over 4 months, and it doesn't matter to any international organisation to issue even an empty condemnation.

Sometimes I feel like there’re two parallel variants of me that exist in the same body, one is the angry chronically online and politically active weirdo variant and the other is the quiet non confrontational variant that wants to be left alone It…feels really weird

⏳ The digital blackout in #Iran has just entered its twelfth week and is now in its 78th day. The internet shutdown, which has sent a country of 90 million largely offline for an unprecedented duration, continues to erode human rights, the economy and basic liberties at scale.

📵 The internet blackout in #Iran has entered its 76th day after 1800 hours. The measure is built on a class-based tiered system where the select few are granted access while the general public are silenced, the very kind of social structure Iranian authorities claim to oppose.

I doubt they will listen

Today at uni a concert was held and I saw someone in the cafeteria presumably from the concert yard wearing the free syria flag It’s still a bit weird to imagine the Syrian civil war, the civil war that marked so much of my life and childhood thus far is now just over

The Islamic Republic's judiciary has secretly executed 32-year-old political prisoner and cybersecurity specialist Ehsan Afrashteh, without prior notice to his family and without a final visit, on charges obtained through forced confession under severe torture. hengaw.net/en/news/2026...

💸 #Iran's internet blackout is now past hour 1776, entering its 75th day. The digital censorship measure has led to profiteering and a decline in digital security as government-backed "pro" internet schemes and selective whitelisting result in surveillance, corruption and scams.

🕰️ Today is the 74th day that #Iran has been largely cut off the global internet, with the incident now passing its 1752 hour. Since 28 February 2026, the world has seen advances in science and technology. Meanwhile, Iran's regime has been arresting and executing technologists.

This, yet another example of something overlooked in our daily lives, is becoming a cause for celebration. This video has also been circulating among Iranians, with the same wish for Iran. Iranians who are abroad and connected, that is, while most in the country are deprived of seeing it online.

The Islamic Republic has previously fined, arrested, beaten, and murdered Iranian women for refusing to wear the mandatory hijab or for failing to comply with the dress code. It has also introduced harsher penalties through the 2024 "Hijab and Chastity" bill, following the 2022 nationwide protests.

📢 The internet blackout in #Iran has entered its 73rd as the incident surpasses 1728 hours. Open internet access is a right that underpins all other liberties, and its deprivation severely limits the public's ability to document and remediate fundamental human rights violations.

JUST HIT IT ALREADY SON OF A FUCK STOP BABBLING

The statistics from Iran paint a bleak picture of the unprecedented price jump in some basic food commodities. Cooking oil has seen the highest inflation, with an average rise of more than 340% over the past year. Prices have climbed from roughly 77,000 tomans to well above 340,000 tomans. 1/4

Tbh now that there’s word PMF might get disarmed in Iraq, part of me is hoping that doesn’t happen because there’s a chance whatever’s left of them might seek refuge in Iran and…well…I think you can put together the rest

It is hard to put into words how humiliating and rage-inducing this is for Iranians…
