All communications out in Gaza, says telecommunications company 

A Palestinian telecommunications provider said there was now a complete blackout of connectivity in the besieged Gaza Strip.

“We regret to announce a complete interruption of all communications and Internet services with the Gaza Strip in light of the ongoing aggression,” the telecommunications company Jawwal said in a statement on Friday. 

“The intense bombing in the last hour caused the destruction of all remaining international routes linking Gaza to the outside world,” it said, adding that Israel’s bombardment and siege had already interrupted communications services in the enclave.
