Palestinian telecom firm reports complete blackout of service in Gaza City
GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – Palestinian telecommunication company Jawwal reported a complete blackout in Gaza City and north of the territory on Monday amid Israeli airstrikes on the enclave.
The company said phone and internet services were interrupted “as a result of damage caused to key elements of the network because of the ongoing aggression.”
Communication services are working partially in central and southern Gaza Strip, the company added in a statement.
Israel resumed its military offensive on the Gaza Strip on Friday after a week-long suspension. It has killed at least 15,899 Palestinians and injured more than 42,000 others in relentless air and ground attacks on the enclave since Oct. 7 following a cross-border attack by Hamas.
The Israeli death toll in the Hamas attack stood at 1,200, according to official figures.
