Civilians in Chad say many businesses are at a standstill since an internet outage that began Tuesday morning.

Yaounde, Cameroon —

Kaimoui said students are angry because the internet blackout deprives them of their right to education and deprives civilians of their rights to freedom of information and expression. Halina told state TV on Thursday that Chad's government has ordered the country's minister of communication to meet with SAFITEL and SOTEL, the companies that manage Chad's fiber-optic networks, to make sure connection is reestablished as soon as possible.

Cameroon said its technicians are deployed to repair the cables, but has not said when connections will be reestablished. Masra said ongoing floods that have killed at least 600 people and displaced about 2 million make it impossible for elections to be held in December.
