Following its blocking at the direction of the Sudanese government, the Ministry of Communications stated that there is no date set for the return of Telegram in Iraq.
A source within the Communications Authority denied on Tuesday the validity of reports circulating about a date being set for the return of the Telegram service in Iraq, after its recent blocking at the direction of caretaker Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and under US orders.
The source told the Information Agency that “what is being circulated regarding the imminent reactivation of the application is incorrect,” emphasizing that “there is no official decision or date for the service’s return yet.”
He added that “the information circulating through some media outlets and social media platforms is not based on official sources,” urging reliance only on statements issued by the relevant authorities.
The source indicated that “any update related to the operation of applications or digital services in the country will be announced exclusively through official channels.”
