Users of X, formerly known as Twitter, reported difficulties accessing timelines, posting updates, or logging in around 4:36 pm IST, according to Downdetector.com.

The outage affected both the mobile app and web platform, leaving many unable to refresh feeds or use core features.

X has not yet released an official statement explaining the cause or scope of the downtime.

Meanwhile, Cloudflare, the internet infrastructure provider supporting thousands of websites and apps, also experienced widespread issues.

The company confirmed the disruption on its status page and said teams were working to investigate and mitigate the problem.

“We are working to understand the full impact and mitigate this problem. More updates to follow shortly,” Cloudflare stated.

This dual disruption underscores the reliance on interconnected digital networks.

Past incidents, including a May outage affecting X and a global Amazon Web Services failure in October, show how outages can ripple across multiple platforms, affecting apps, streaming services, and banking systems.

The X, Cloudflare Outages highlight the vulnerability of online platforms and the importance of robust infrastructure.
