Iran's Internet access has returned to pre-war levels, the country's communications minister said Wednesday, following a temporary shutdown during the recent conflict with Israel.

Sattar Hashemi, Iran's minister of Information and Communications Technology, made the announcement in a post on the social platform X, a day after a ceasefire was declared between Iran and Israel, ending 12 days of fighting.

Iran imposed restrictions on Internet access shortly after Israel launched a series of airstrikes across the country on June 13, targeting nuclear and military sites. The strikes killed several senior commanders, nuclear scientists, and hundreds of civilians, according to Iranian officials.

In the wake of the attacks, pro-Israeli hackers also claimed that they launched cyberattacks on Iran's banking system, disrupting services at several banks. Enditem
