Iran's vice president Mohammad Reza Aref said the government has taken the first steps to restore internet access.
The announcement comes after a near-total blackout has been in place in Iran since war with the US and Israel broke out in late February.
Iranian state media had reported yesterday that President Masoud Pezeshkian issued an order to reopen international internet access.
"The first step toward free and regulated access to cyberspace has been taken," the Iranian vice president said in a post on X, adding that the demands of Iranians "will be fulfilled."
