Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 46691, member: 636"] Malawi's communications regulator has promised to help Airtel after criminals deliberately damaged the company's internet cables across the country. The Malawi Communications Regulatory Authority says these attacks hurt national progress and development. Zamdziko Mankhamba from MACRA told reporters that people need to learn about the serious damage these crimes cause to everyone. Airtel operates more than 2,000 kilometers of fiber cables that carry internet signals throughout Malawi. The company reports that attackers have cut cables at the same time across different areas. These coordinated strikes show criminals are working together to damage the network on purpose. The sabotage has disrupted important services that citizens depend on daily. Hospitals cannot communicate properly with patients and other medical facilities. Schools struggle to provide online learning to students. Mobile money services fail when people need to send or receive payments. Workers cannot do their jobs from home when internet connections break down. Airtel wants citizens to call their free phone number 460 if they see suspicious activity near fiber cables. The company offers money as a reward for information that helps police catch the criminals. Network Director Mphatso Manda says these crimes hurt every person who needs internet access. MACRA plans to work with radio stations and the Media Council of Malawi to teach people about protecting communication equipment. The campaign will explain why fiber cables matter for modern life. Both organizations want Malawians to treat internet access as essential infrastructure that deserves protection from everyone. [/QUOTE]
