However, some reports from Arab media channels stated that the video is manipulated.Other reports linked the “worldwide Internet outage” to a possible solar storm expected in October, which was announced by NASA. This phenomenon can cause malfunctions and problems in all wireless communications networks, as well as to satellites and electricity networks, due to the effect of solar winds on Earth.The TDRA urged the public to be cautious of what they read online, and rely only on information from legitimate sources.“We strongly encourage everyone to rely solely on our official channels for accurate information to avoid unnecessary worry,” it advised.Check AlsoRecent PostsRelated NewsThis website uses cookies to improve your experience while you navigate through the website.
