Internet disruptions in Myanmar after apparent military coup: monitor
Internet connections in Myanmar were severely disrupted Monday as the country's de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi was detained by the military in an apparent coup, according to an independent monitor.
"The telecommunication disruptions, beginning approximately 3:00 am Monday morning local time, have significant subnational impact including the capital, and are likely to limit coverage of events as they take place," said the Netblocks civil society group.
Telecom operators Telenor and MPT are also down in Yangon as of this morning.
This story will be updated as the situation unfolds.
