Israel has launched a “massive cyber war” against Iran’s digital infrastructure, Iranian media quotes the country’s cybersecurity command as saying.
Many of the attacks were successfully repelled, the command adds.
Meanwhile, a range of reports indicate that Iran is restricting access for the public to the outside world, as landline telephones appear to be no longer able to receive or dial international phone calls.
