**Disruption in Mobile and Internet Services in Georgia**
A major telecommunications company in Georgia, Magticom, has experienced disruptions to its mobile and fixed internet services. The disruption occurred on January 27 and lasted for several hours.
According to a statement released by the company, the issue was caused by damage to secured channels from Europe. Heavy snowfall and avalanche risks in Turkey had prevented partner companies’ technical teams from reaching the affected area. Additionally, Magticom’s backup channel in Georgia also experienced disruptions.
The company reported that suspicious damage was detected at three points in Georgia’s Adjara region on January 27. The incident has been reported to law enforcement authorities for investigation.
Magticom’s technical team worked around the clock to resolve the issues. All three damages were fully resolved by 01:54 a.m. on January 28.
The law enforcement bodies have not yet commented on the issue.
