Damascus, SANA \u2013 Landline communications have been back into service in the eastern Deir Ezzor province after an outage that lasted for more than a year and a half.<\/p>\n
The outage was caused by a terrorist attack on the optic cable that operates foreign communications and internet in Deir Ezzor city in January, 2015.<\/p>\n
Mobile telecommunications, however, were restored in March, 2015, after satellite equipment was set up and connected with the mobile network.<\/p>\n
In a statement to SANA, caretaker Minister of Communications and Technology Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali said the engineering and technical teams of the Syrian Telecom Company have restored the landline communication service to Deir Ezzor.<\/p>\n
National and international communications are now back in service in Deir Ezzor city, said director of Deir Ezzor branch of the company Ramadan al-Delli, noting that the equipment necessary for operating the services has been installed at the Communications Center in the city and the network has been connected with the provinces.<\/p>\n
Al-Delli added that work is underway to install the necessary equipment to operate the banking network and those of some establishments, such as the Post and the Immigration and Passports.<\/p>\n
