Denmark Faces Nationwide Telecom and Rail Disruptions
Widespread mobile network outages and halted train services leave thousands affected, with emergency services deploying alternative measures.
- The mobile network of Denmark's largest telecom provider, TDC, has suffered a major outage, affecting users across the country, including emergency number 112.
- Danish police and emergency services have increased their presence on the streets to provide alternative contact points for those needing urgent assistance.
- Rail services across multiple routes in western Denmark were halted due to a failure in the digital signaling system, leaving some trains stranded mid-journey.
- Authorities are investigating the causes of the disruptions, with TDC suggesting a recent system update as a possible factor, while ruling out evidence of a cyberattack so far.
- Train operations on affected routes are gradually resuming, with Banedanmark working with suppliers to address the issues and restore full service in the coming days.
