Gibraltar experienced a network connectivity disruption on Thursday, June 26, lasting approximately 50 minutes. The event began at 11:40 UTC and concluded by 12:30 UTC, primarily affecting internet reachability metrics. The cause has not been publicly attributed.

Technical Details

The disruption registered a severity score of 1,864, based on observed network performance degradation. The primary affected metric was the ping-slash24 signal, which measures ICMP reachability across IPv4 network prefixes. This signal recorded a 64% drop from its peak performance level during the event.

Other network signals showed less pronounced deviations. The gtr-norm signal, a normalized measure of traffic flow, saw a 33% drop from its peak. The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control plane, responsible for routing announcements, remained stable throughout the period. The disruption was resolved by the end of the observation window.
