GO said this evening that a technical problem on one of its international submarine cables to Sicily has caused a degradation of the internet service to customers.

"While technical teams are working to rectify the fault in the shortest time possible, contingency plans have already been put into action to use alternative GO infrastructure to minimize the impact," the company said.

Further updates will be issued once more information becomes available.

The company apologised to its clients.
