Iranian media have reported the approval of a "new and important" resolution regarding the reconnection of the country's internet to the international internet in the "Special Headquarters for Organizing Cyberspace"; a resolution that still requires the final approval of Masoud Pezeshkian, the President of Iran, for implementation.
Fars News Agency reported on Tuesday, May 24, that the fourth meeting of this headquarters was held under the chairmanship of Mohammad Reza Aref, the First Vice President, and "important resolutions" regarding connection to the international internet were approved.
Fars quoted a source saying that "establishing connection to the international internet" was approved with 9 votes in favor and 3 against, and has been sent to the President's office for approval.
Tasnim News Agency also published a similar report stating that the resolutions of this meeting, after the President's final approval, will be communicated to the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology for implementation.
Meanwhile, Setna, a specialized media outlet in the field of communications and information technology, quoted "an informed source" reporting that in the Tuesday morning meeting, "the return of the internet to the status before December 2025" was approved and, if confirmed by Masoud Pezeshkian, will be communicated to the Ministry of Communications for implementation.
