The government of Iran has restored some access to the internet this week, after a lengthy blackout imposed on and off, for most of this year. Many Iranians are celebrating the move, which has allowed some people to contact friends and family members abroad for the first time in weeks. It could also be a lifeline for Iranians who depend on digital platforms to earn a living.
There is speculation that the move could be intended to show US President Donald Trump that the regime is willing to make some compromises at home.
But digital monitoring groups say the level of internet access is still poorer than it was before Tehran imposed its blackouts, first as a response to mass protests in January, and again at the start of the war with the US and Israel. Access to some sites is still blocked and analysts say two-factor authentication is not available in Iran, impeding many people’s access to platforms like Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp.
Reha Kansara, from the BBC’s Global Disinformation Unit, tells us what restrictions Iranians still face, how people are trying to get around them, and how this partial restoration of internet access could play into the ceasefire talks between Tehran and Washington.

The public health risk from the current Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been raised from “high” to “very high” by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In an update on Friday, WHO head Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also said the risk in the wider region in Africa was “high”, but it remained “low” globally.
The rare species of Ebola, known as Bundibugyo, has no proven vaccine and kills about a third of those infected. So far, the outbreak centred on DR Congo has resulted in 177 suspected deaths and 750 suspected cases.
It comes as scientists at Oxford University in the UK are developing a new vaccine that could be ready for clinical trials within two to three months.

Warning: contains details of alleged sexual offences and misconduct
Senior staff on Married at First Sight UK had an “unhealthy” focus on whether cast members were having sex, former workers on the show have told BBC News.
Producers would deliberately try to make contestants angry or upset for the sake of generating watchable drama, they say.
The former workers on the Channel 4 show have spoken to the BBC following a Panorama investigation into Married at First Sight UK (MAFS UK). Two former cast members say they were raped by their on-screen partners, and a third alleged a non-consensual sex act. Their on-screen partners have denied all the allegations against them.
Lawyers for CPL, the production company which makes MAFS UK, say the latest allegations are from a small minority of former workers, and the company’s “commitment to welfare… is evidenced by the high consecutive return rate of crew across the MAFS series”.
Channel 4 says contributor welfare is “always our primary concern across all productions”.

The next Call of Duty game has been revealed, with much of the reaction focused on its campaign set around a fictional renewed conflict on the Korean Peninsula.
Modern Warfare 4, due out 23 October, partly follows South Korean soldiers battling a full-scale North Korean invasion.
Dr Sarah Son, Senior Lecturer in Korean Studies at the University of Sheffield, said the move “could be controversial” as it “turns still-unresolved war into entertainment”. Some Koreans reacted more positively, with one calling Korea’s inclusion in one of gaming’s biggest franchises a “symbolic moment”.
Developer Infinity Ward said the game will be “grounded in the military authenticity Modern Warfare is known for”.

His ideal ministerial position would be a foreign secretary. He doesn’t deserve PM, but his performance in diplomatic places is enough respectable.

The only solution is an appeasement between Russia and Ukraine – more weapons mean more war and more destruction.. The West caused this trouble in Ukraine and should pull back – war cannot solve the issues of the conflict at all!!

This press conference was a year ago and we are finding out today a year later that UK PM Boris Johnson traveled to Ukraine and had a meeting with Zelensky telling him not to hold peace talks with Russia and to continue fighting the war for the west.

Boris went to Ukraine in April 2022 and told Zelenski to tear up the peace agreement he had signed in March. The war carried on at the request of the west and Nato.

As Zelensky said two days ago in London, Boris and the U.K. Governnment where there from day one with their support. Persuaded the world to support Ukraine when it looked impossible to do so. I think she was at the wrong ‘presser’ and should have been at the press meeting being held by the Germans and French .

Ukraine is ungrateful. The UK are trying to help and it puts alot of stress on us considering all the strikes that Is happening. And she shouldn't say "our" because none of the children belong to her. And the UK are doing their best to make sure they are alright. We were the first country to help. And respects to the Ukrainian president and Boris.

Ukraine my backside
Shes on about children getting killed but there are kids dying from hunger but everyone is just watching and not doing anything
People are coming to the Uk from this country and are going straight into homes where they have heating and food where people who have been in this country for 10 years cannot afford it and some peoppe who fled warzones are being sent straight to rwanda.
I HOPE THIS WILL MAKE YOU THINK
THESE ARE MY THOUGHTS BUT I WANT TO SHARE IT

In this case, both what the questioner is saying and Prime Minister Johnson's answer are correct. That is the difficult part of international politics.
