US, ‘Israel’ launch full-scale attack against Iran

Meanwhile, developments inside Tehran suggest the immediate impact of the strikes is already being felt. Mehr News Agency reported disruptions to mobile phone services in parts of the capital, raising concerns about communications instability as tensions escalate. While the exact cause of the outages has not been fully clarified, disruptions to telecommunications infrastructure are often associated with either defensive precautionary measures or collateral effects from strikes targeting security systems. In any case, interruptions to communication networks contribute to uncertainty among the civilian population and complicate the flow of reliable information.

Iranian authorities have also confirmed that the country’s airspace has been closed until further notice. Such closures are typically enacted during periods of significant military escalation, both to protect civilian aviation and to secure the skies for defensive or retaliatory operations. The suspension of flights reflects the seriousness of the situation and signals that officials in Tehran are preparing for the possibility of continued or expanded hostilities. Airspace closures also have economic and diplomatic ripple effects, disrupting travel, trade routes, and international connections.
