Users of the Telegram messenger across Kazakhstan have faced widespread service disruptions. The outage began at approximately 11:25 and is ongoing, according to infohub.kz.
Complaints about Telegram's unavailability are coming from various regions of the country. In response, a correspondent reached out to the press service of Kazakhtelecom JSC for comment. They confirmed the presence of restrictions and reduced service availability.
"According to monitoring data, a sharp drop in traffic towards Telegram has also been recorded at key international peering points in Frankfurt and Moscow.
