Apagón nacional
Following political unrest in the country over rising energy prices, authorities in Kazakhstan cut off access to the Internet starting 11:00 UTC on 5 January 2022. The access appeared to be briefly and partly restored for few hours each day before being cut again. The outage continued until 10 January 2022 and by one estimate cost the Kazakhstan economy over $400 million USD. The lives of Kazakh citizens were severely disrupted as the outage affected such critical systems as banks and mobile payment systems.

Impacto local
A raíz de los disturbios políticos en el país por el aumento de los precios de la energía, las autoridades de Kazajstán cortaron el acceso a Internet a partir de las 11:00 UTC del 5 de enero de 2022. El acceso pareció restablecerse breve y parcialmente durante unas horas cada día antes de volver a cortarse. El corte continuó hasta el 10 de enero de 2022 y , según una estimación, costó a la economía kazaja más de 400 millones de dólares estadounidenses. La vida de los ciudadanos kazajos se vio gravemente perturbada, ya que el apagón afectó a sistemas tan críticos como los bancos y los sistemas de pago por móvil.

Around 11:15 UTC today we saw the majority of #RIPEAtlas probes in #Kazakhstan lose connectivity. This probably indicates some wider restrictions on Internet access around that time in #Kazakhstan . pic.twitter.com/488zjQX58c
