Keihan Darvishi was born in the Kurdish area of northern Iran and lived there for his first six years, and he has many relatives still in the area. According to sources, for several weeks in January and February, the internet was shut down for Iranians. A few days before the weekend's attacks, the internet was working, but now it is completely silent.
The reason for the current internet silence is unknown. Keihan Darvishi follows news sites and when a new video comes, he thinks there might be a temporary contact. He sees in the news that bombs are falling in cities where his relatives live.
Could Starlink be up now? Maybe you test 10, 20, or 30 times a day.
The uncertainty is demanding; he sleeps poorly and notices he is inattentive both at work and with his child. Keihan Darvishi expressed the difficulty, saying, "We know nothing, we don't hear anything. " He also wonders about connectivity, asking, "Could Starlink be up now?
" Later the same day SVT meets Keihan, he gets news about his relatives. His mother managed to get in touch with a relative and heard that everyone in the family is doing well. The person also reported that buildings are shaking from bombs and drone attacks.
We know nothing, we don't hear anything. It's terrible.
" The specific attacks that occurred in Iran over the weekend remain unclear. Additionally, Keihan Darvishi's grandmother, who lives in Sweden, is visiting Iran and cannot get back home, with no information on measures to help her return.
It was still comforting to hear that they are doing well, right now.
