YEREVAN, December 19. /ARKA/. Over the past hour, Internet was unavailable across Armenia. The reason, presumably, was Google’s failure in several European countries.

Samvel Martirosyan, an Armenian cyber security expert, wrote in Telegram that "Google is dead."
According to Google's interactive map, the problem affected, in particular, Ireland, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Northern Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Ukraine, Belarus, as well as Hungary, Greece, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Facebook and Google services - Gmail, Youtube, Google Analytics, Google Play and others were unavailable for about an hour. Currently, the Internet connection is slowly recovering. -
