North Korea’s 9-Hour Internet Outage: Hack, Reboot, or Kim’s Game Night?
A significant internet outage affected North Korea for approximately nine hours on Saturday morning, beginning around 2-3 a.m. KST. The disruption, described as a “major” event, disconnected the country from the global internet, impacting official news dissemination and email services. The root cause remains unclear, but the failure of North Korea’s DNS servers is implicated. Experts suggest an internal issue is the most likely explanation, rather than an external attack.
