ARMENIA'S INTERNET LINK BREAKS . . . AGAIN

Aug. 7, 2006
Armenia has been cut off from the internet for the second time,
after cable failures interrupted connections. The breaks, on 4 and 5
August, were caused by cable breakdowns in the Kutaisi region and a
break on the Black Sea seabed link. No information on when the damage
will be fixed is available, but the outages are an embarrassment
to the government which sees information technologies as key to the
development of the national economy.
