Gaza hit with another ‘near-total’ internet blackout

Gaza is once more affected by a “near-total telecommunications blackout” amid relentless Israeli bombardment, according to an internet watchdog.

“The incident is likely to severely limit most residents’ ability to communicate, in the tenth such incident since the start of the war,” Netblocks said in a post on X.

Its data showed that the connectivity status for the Rafah governorate to the south was worst, with connectivity levels dropping to as low as 5 percent.
