Iran's parliament is moving to tighten internet controls, according to the National Council of Resistance of Iran, an opposition group. The report links the push to broader domestic pressures, including uncertainty over subsidies and a wave of security-related arrests. It suggests the government may be seeking to restrict online communications amid growing unrest and economic strain inside the country.
