US government blocks Iran-affiliated news websites
The US has taken down dozens of Iranian and Iran-linked news sites which it accuses of spreading disinformation.
The sites were replaced on Tuesday with notices saying they had been " seized " as part of a law enforcement action. They included Iran's state-run English-language channel, Press TV.
Several were back online within hours with new domain addresses.
Iran criticised the seizures and warned that they were "not constructive" for talks aimed at reviving a nuclear deal.
The US Department of Justice said in a statement that it had seized 33 websites used by the Iranian Islamic Radio and Television Union (IRTVU) and another three run by the Iran-backed Kataib Hezbollah militia in Iraq in violation of US sanctions.
The sites had been used by components of the Iranian government " disguised as news organizations or media outlets" to target the US & quot;with disinformation campaigns and malign influence operations", it alleged.
