A spokesman for Facebook has explained why the
social network went down briefly this morning, Thursday, 19 June, 2014
with an error message on the site sending the internet into complete
meltdown.
A statement from the spokesman read: "Earlier this morning, we experienced an issue that prevented people from posting to Facebook for a brief period of time.
"We resolved the issue quickly, and we are now back to 100 per cent. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused."
The issue affected Facebook homepage, mobile and messenger services.
A generic error message on the site read: "Sorry, something went wrong.
"We’re working on getting this fixed as soon as we can."
Meanwhile, the site is running again as normal after sending many internet users into a blind panic, with many taking to Twitter to let everyone else know it was down.
UK and Nigerian users were unable to access their account for about 30 minutes from around 8:30 and 9:30 respectively this morning, with the outage affecting other users around the world.
It is the first time the site has suffered a widespread outage lasting more than a few minutes.
