[liberationtech] Hearing Syria internet cut

[Walid AL-SAQAF <alkasir admin>]

Hi all,

I confirm that there appears to be an issue with users of Alkasir from
Syria lately. Users from 14 different ISPs used to connect, but recently,
only 11 ISPs are used and I noticed that no users are coming through the
following ISPs:

   - INET-INTERNET-SERVICE-PROVIDER
   - RUNNET
   - TARASSUL-INETNET-SERVICE-PROVIDER


Sincerely,

Walid
