Damascus: International internet monitoring service NetBlocks reports a nationwide internet shutdown in Syria.

“Confirmed: Live network data show a nation-scale internet outage across #Syria corroborating reports of a telecommunications disruption affecting multiple cities,” the service said on X.

At the end of November 2024, armed formations of the Syrian opposition launched a large-scale offensive against the positions of the Syrian army and entered Damascus on December 8. Bashar Assad left the post of president of Syria and left the country. On January 29, the head of the new Syrian administration, Ahmed al-Sharaa, was declared Syria’s interim president for the duration of the transitional period.
