A technical failure affected telecommunications services across Yemen
The outage, which affected both mobile and internet services, was reported to have originated from a critical infrastructure failure
The disruption has caused widespread frustration, as families rely heavily on telecommunications to share greetings and coordinate festivities during Eid.
The timing of the failure has heightened its impact, as Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan and is traditionally a time for family gatherings and community celebrations.
Businesses, particularly those dependent on online transactions, have also been affected, adding to the economic strain in a country already facing challenges due to ongoing conflict.
While the technical failure has cast a shadow over the Eid celebrations, it has also highlighted the critical importance of reliable telecommunications infrastructure in fostering connections and supporting economic activity.
