On Tuesday, the Spanish telecom giant, Telefonica, announced that updates to its network led to a disruption in landline communications for several businesses, as well as affecting the emergency number 112 in certain regions of Spain.
The company stated that its teams are actively working to restore services, and reported that the emergency lines are now operational again.
This incident follows closely on the heels of a major blackout that occurred just four weeks ago, which plunged both Spain and Portugal into darkness for nearly 23 hours, causing significant disruptions to daily life.
Reports from DownDetector indicate that all major telecommunications providers in Spain, including Telefonica, are experiencing outages, leaving customers unable to make calls, send texts, or access mobile data. Interestingly, users on social media have noted similar issues with other networks as well.
In response to the situation, emergency services in various areas have shared alternative contact numbers since the national emergency line, 112, was affected.
Spain’s Ministry of Digital Transformation has confirmed to The Independent that they are closely monitoring the ongoing situation.
The recent power outage in April had a drastic impact, causing major disruptions to metro systems and leading to the cancellation of hundreds of flights across both nations.
