Tunis, 18 April 2015:
Libya Telecoms and Technology (LTT), the state monopoly internet service controller, claimed that the internet . . .[restrict]service in Tripoli was interrupted for a number of hours today due to an attack by ‘’internet pirates from more than 13 countries’’.
The claim came today on the background of the clashes and fighting in various areas of Tripoli over the last few nights and days, including in Tajoura and Fashloum between GNC-Libya Dawn forces and House of Representatives (HoR) local supporters.
LTT was accused by some locals today of deliberately cutting internet connection to the outside world, including social networks such as Facebook, in order to suppress news of events in Tripoli. [/restrict]
