Facebook and Instagram were offline to many users on Wednesday afternoon in what appeared to be a global connection problem
The website Down Detector suggested users of both social media sites began reporting problems at about 4pm, with Europe and North America seemingly worst hit, though this could be due to time zones and the number of Facebook users in different regions
By around 6pm, the number of reported problem had dropped to normal levels
A Facebook spokesperson said: “Earlier today, a networking issue caused some people to have trouble accessing Facebook services. We quickly investigated and started restoring access within about an hour, and we have nearly fixed the issue for everyone. We’re sorry for the inconvenience”
