I don't think so but I think that there are interruptions.

There is still BGP to at least some Iranian sites. The University of Teheran, for example, has

*> 80.66.176.0/21 38.101.161.116 61951 0 174 7473 12880 29068 i
*> 80.66.184.0/21 38.101.161.116 61951 0 174 7473 12880 29068 i

Its (English) web service,

http://www.ut.ac.ir/en/

is at 80.66.177.63

and that is both reachable and pingable. So, the site is reachable and the DNS is still there.

However, the (small but steady) Iranian audience for AmericaFree.TV
has largely, but not entirely, vanished for the last 24 hours. That suggests to me
something is being blocked, but not uniformly.

I received the following report from a network operator in Teheran:

--- snip ---
SMS is down since friday for all three cell operators. In the areas
that riot is taken place, cell phones are not working. Outgoing calls
to certain countries are blocked. DCI, the organization in charge of
internet connectivity, that provides internet transit for local isps
has taken down 80% of its uplink connectivity and currently only a few
peers (TTNET as far as I know) are active.
