Background
Fatemeh Mohajerani serves as the spokeswoman for the Iranian government under President Masoud Pezeshkian, appointed in 2024 following Pezeshkian's election. She is the principal official communications channel for the executive, holding regular press briefings and issuing statements on behalf of the cabinet.
On 28 April 2026 (Day 60 of the conflict), Mohajerani announced the SNSC's decision to restore Internet Pro — Iran's limited commercial internet tier — signalling the government's recognition that sustained connectivity disruption was damaging the economy. Her briefings during the conflict have been the primary official source for government-sanctioned information on domestic measures.
Mohajerani is one of a small number of women to hold a senior official government communications role in the Islamic Republic. Her appointment was seen as part of Pezeshkian's reform-oriented image, though her mandate remains firmly within the bounds of official policy.
