 Flights suspended to Ethiopian holy town of Lalibela as fighting expands Flights to the historic Ethiopian town of Lalibela ​were suspended on Thursday due to fighting nearby, seven sources said, as residents in the Tigray region to the north stocked up on food and ‌cash, fearing that renewed fighting could trigger another major war.

 Iran orders reopening of international internet access after months-long blackout, state media says

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has ordered the reopening of international internet access after a near-90-day nationwide blackout, according to state media, following months of escalating conflict involving the United States and Israel.

The directive was confirmed by the head of public relations at Iran’s Communications Ministry, though officials have not yet detailed how or when global connectivity will be restored.

Monitoring groups estimate that most people in Iran have been cut off from the global internet for about 87 days, with access largely limited to those using costly virtual private networks to bypass restrictions.

The shutdown began in early January during a period of domestic unrest, with service partially restored in February before another widespread blackout was imposed after the start of military strikes involving the U.S. and Israel later that month.

Even outside of outages, Iran maintains strict controls over internet access, with heavy censorship of foreign platforms and increased reliance on a domestic intranet system used for government services and education.
