Internet appeared in Kazakhstan

RIA Novosti reports.

The resumption of the Internet was announced by both residents of Alma-Ata and Ust-Kamenogorsk and Atyrau.

Since January 6, we recall that stable Internet operation was available only in the capital of the republic - Nur-Sultan. In other regions, only landline and mobile remained the only means of communication. According to acting Minister of Digital Development and Aerospace Industry Bagdat Musin, the blocking of the Internet was associated with the use of communications by terrorist groups to coordinate actions.

In order to keep the population informed about the measures taken by the state authorities to stabilize the situation, state agencies have been sending news messages by SMS since January 6 and have opened access to a limited number of sites.

We remind that on January 2, protests began in Kazakhstan due to the government 's decision to increase the tariff for liquefied gas. later the protests turned into clashes and riots, there are dead and wounded.

Until January 19, a state of emergency was introduced in the country, and the liberation of administrative centers from marauders continues. However, on January 10, over 60 people violated the special regime in Nur-Sultan.
