Twitter said on Tuesday its social network was suffering outages in some parts of the world and it was working to resolve the issues.
Users trying to access the micro-blogging site through the web were greeted with a message informing them "Something is technically wrong" on Tuesday afternoon (Pakistan Standard Time). Users were unable to access Twitter on their mobile applications as well.
The message on the web portal adds, "We're going to fix it up and have things back to normal soon."
Smartphone users receiving the warning: "Tweets aren't loading right now."
"Some users are currently experiencing problems accessing Twitter. We are aware of the issue and are working towards a resolution," said the company on its official service status page.
A Twitter spokeswoman gave no further comment.
Outages were reported from several parts of the world and appeared to be concentrated around Europe in Britain, France and Germany, according to DownDetector.uk, an independent Twitter outage monitoring service.
But noot everyone experienced the outage, with some Twitter users in Europe still able to publish, suggesting there was never a complete blackout.
"I'm reading hundreds of tweets, on Twitter, saying Twitter is down. This is like Inception," tweeted London-based James
