Armenia Experiences Internet Connectivity Degradation
Armenia experienced a significant internet connectivity disruption on Friday, June 20, 2026. The degradation began at 12:20 UTC and lasted approximately one and a half hours, ending by 13:50 UTC. The primary impact was observed on network reachability across the country’s IPv4 address space.
Technical Details
The disruption registered a severity score of 8,867. The most affected metric was the ping-slash24 signal, which measures ICMP reachability across active IPv4 /24 network prefixes. This signal showed a 99% drop from its peak performance level during the event.
Other network signals showed varied impacts. The gtr.sarima signal, which forecasts deviations from expected traffic baselines, recorded a 21% drop from its peak. The merit-nt signal, a proxy for aggregate connectivity based on backscatter measurements, showed a 51% drop. The BGP control plane signal, which monitors routing advertisement visibility, remained stable throughout the event with no observed drop.
The cause has not been publicly attributed.
Connectivity was reported restored by the end of the observation period.
