Bank Sepah branches reportedly closed, customers say accounts inaccessible

Several branches of Iran’s Bank Sepah were reported closed on Tuesday, with customers saying they were unable to access their accounts, according to witness reports shared with Iran International.

“We went to the branch, and it was closed. We have no access to our account,” one customer told the outlet.

Separately, users reported widespread issues with debit cards from Ansar Bank and Kosar Bank, saying transactions had been failing since the morning.

All the three banks are linked to Iran’s military.

There was no immediate comment from the banks or Iranian authorities on the reported outages.
