Gaza: Internet and landline services began gradually returning to the Gaza Strip late Sunday, following a four-day outage.
According to Kuwait News Agency, the Palestinian Telecommunications Regulatory Authority issued a press statement announcing the restoration of internet services in Gaza after repairs to damaged infrastructure. However, it noted that services remain disrupted in the central and southern areas of the Gaza Strip. The authority had previously stated that the outage occurred after Israeli occupation forces targeted the last remaining main fiber-optic route.
Several local Palestinian bodies confirmed that the prolonged blackout had completely cut Gaza off from the outside world, severely impacting relief, healthcare, media, and education services.
