Internet connection remains largely disrupted across Sudan as the fighting between the army and the paramilitary forces enters a second week, NetBlocks organisation reports.
“Sudan remains largely offline in the midst of an internet blackout, with connectivity at 2% of ordinary levels,” the cybersecurity monitor said in a statement on Monday.
It cited military allegations that the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces allegedly sabotaged the telecom exchange in the capital Khartoum early on Monday, impacting networks in the country.
Khartoum residents, however, say phone connectivity is still intact.
A civilian network organised mainly through Twitter has been giving updates about the fighting, especially tips on available aid and safe escape routes.
The fighting in the country has led a number of nations to evacuate their diplomats from the country.
