Russian authorities reportedly restored internet services late Jan. 30 following a several-hour outage that disrupted internet access in Russia and access to sites with the .ru domain. Russian authorities stated that the outage occurred due to a DNSSEC failure and that the relevant internet access issue was resolved; however, it will take time for services to be fully restored.
Some lingering internet connectivity issues and individual site outages are likely in the coming hours.
