Internet connectivity at the time
Internet connectivity in Kazakhstan dropped 34 hours after this event, and stayed disrupted for about 4 hours.
From 06 Oct 2026 20:40 UTC to 07 Oct 2026 00:40 UTC. Detected by global routing tables — networks withdrawn from the internet entirely.
Internet outages have many causes — damaged cables, power failures, network maintenance and deliberate shutdowns among them. IODA detects the loss of connectivity and does not attribute it to anything. This is shown because it happened at the same time, not because one caused the other.
Measured by IODA, Georgia Institute of Technology.
Satellite view, before and after
The latest clear Sentinel-2 pass before this event and the earliest one after it.

The white ring marks where the event was reported.
Each image is a preview of a whole Sentinel-2 tile — an area of roughly 110 by 110 km, where one pixel is about 320 metres — not a close-up of the event, which may be a small part of it. "Clear" means under 30% cloud across the entire tile, so the exact place that matters can still be hidden. These are pictures for context, not an assessment of damage.
Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2026, found through the Earth Search catalogue (Element 84) and served from the AWS Open Data Sentinel-2 archive.
