Iranian government blocks access to London Olympics website

Iranian government has blocked the access to the official website of London Olympic Games.

According to Kabir News, users trying to visit London2012.com will be redirected to Peyvandha.ir which is the official page run by Iranian government to confirm the blockade.

The web page publishes news about the latest events of London 2012 Olympic Games and it doesn’t have any “immoral” or “political” news stories or images which infringe the Islamic rules, Kabir News says, adding that majority of Iranian users condemned the blockade.
