ISTANBUL, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Some Google services
including YouTube were not accessible in Turkey and some parts
of Europe on Thursday, the Turkish deputy minister for
telecommunications and a local internet monitor said.
The Freedom of Expression Association, which monitors local
censorship on the internet, said the outage on Alphabet's Google
began around 1000 a.m. (0700 GMT) in Turkey.
The local cyber security watchdog requested a technical
report from Google, the deputy minister, Omer Fatih Sayan, said
on X.
A map posted by Sayan showed Turkey, large parts of
southeast Europe, and some locations in Ukraine, Russia and
western Europe as affected.
