Meta has responded to the global outage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Facebook, Instagram, Threads and Messenger – platforms managed by Meta – were down for thousands of users in India and several other countries, outage tracking website Downdetector said. The services were restored after a brief outage.<\/p>\n

Users were unable to load apps, deliver messages and refresh their search feeds on Facebook and Instagram. There were more than 300,000 reports of outages on Facebook, while there were more than 20,000 reports on Instagram, according to the website. Several users were logged out of their Facebook accounts and because of the outage, they are not able to log back in.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We’re aware people are having trouble accessing our services. We are working on this now,” said Meta spokesperson Andy Stone.<\/p>\n

Downdetector tracks outages by collating status reports from several sources including user-submitted errors on its platform. The outage could have affected a larger number of users.\u00a0The website showed outages being experienced not just in India, but in several other countries as well, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Brazil.<\/p>\n
