Data from Cloudflare Radar shows 3 disruptions to traffic from Tigo, and 2 disruptions at Sudatel Senegal between 3rd-6th June 2023. Cloudflare data also shows traffic drops at Sudatel Senegal and Tigo on 31st July 2023. Senegalese survey respondents who experienced the outages and blocks described that they had an impact on the country's economic activity and political stability, on their professional endeavours, and on the vulnerable or marginalised groups in Senegal.
