Residents in Denmark are grappling with a major telecoms outage that’s disrupting phone calls, including crucial emergency calls to 112.

TDC, the largest telecoms provider in Denmark, appears to be experiencing a service disruption crisis affecting thousands of its customers. This disruption is believed to have been initiated by a software update carried out on Wednesday.

However, in the context of Denmark’s support of Ukraine and the ongoing situation in which the Danish Navy shadowed, boarded, and detained the Chinese ship Yi Peng 3 – that departed from a Russian port and is suspected to have severed the ‘BCS’ and ‘C-Lion1’ subsea internet cables – there’s no shortage of speculation around external involvement.
