International Internet services were disrupted this afternoon due to damage to three undersea telecoms cables in the Mediterranean Sea, according to the UAE Telecommunications Company - Etisalat. Etsalaat said it took several precautionary measures to ensure the flow of Internet services in the UAE, although many countries linked to the damaged cables were seriously affected. "Etisalat was able to use alternative routes shortly after the disruption of the three international cables, thereby ensuring the continuity and smooth flow of internet services in the UAE", said the statement. The precautionary measures taken by Etisalaat made it the less affected operator in the region, the statement added.
