Facebook access has reportedly been restored in Iran; it had been blocked by government officials who did not want the opposition party using it for campaign purposes.
The site was blocked on May 23, because supporters of moderate Mir Hossein Mousavi was using Facebook to "better disseminate the candidate's positions," according to Agence France-Presse.
Mousavi is running against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is seeking a second term in office in next month's election. When asked about the block, Ahmadinejad said Monday that he was "unaware and would investigate."
