Voice of the Emirates – The internet around the world witnessed widespread disruption this morning after the services of Cloudflare, which is responsible for a large part of the web infrastructure, were disrupted, leading to the shutdown or slowdown of global websites, including the X platform and a number of major digital services.

Users from various countries reported sudden disruptions in browsing websites and applications that rely on Cloudflare for protection and connection speed, while the companies that own those websites tried to reassure their audience, stressing that they are monitoring the situation urgently.

This outage is one of the most significant technical disruptions in recent times, given the large number of websites that rely on Cloudflare’s vital services. The company is expected to release an official statement explaining the cause of the outage and its plan for a gradual restoration of service in the coming hours.
