Internet connectivity down in Iran as airstrikes hit the country.

Traffic volume dropped at 07:06 UTC and then again at 11:47 UTC with minimal connectivity remaining.

The country had a partial restoration since Jan-27 following a complete shutdown in Jan-8.

Big news on my SCUMM documentary project this week: Ron Gilbert (@grumpygamer) is among our first batch of confirmed interviews, along with designers @DavidBFox and Tami Borowick, programmer Aric Wilmunder, and artist-extraordinaire Mark Ferrari.
