Iranian officials have blocked access to Telegram, an application used by activists to arrange anti-government rallies. Iranian officials claim the situation is only temporary because it was encouraging hateful conduct, use of Molotov cocktails, and social unrest, tweeted Mohammad-Javad Azari Jahromi, Irans Minister of Information and Communications Technology. US President Donald Trump commented on Twitter that Iran closed down the internet so that peaceful demonstrators cannot communicate. Not good!”]
