Two Haitian telecommunications companies have reported service outages induced by the severance of their fiber optics cables in suspected acts of gang sabotage.

Digicel Haiti, one of Haiti's biggest telecom companies, said one of its cables was cut on Thursday in the community of Martissant near the capital of Port-au-Prince, considered ground zero for warring gangs. The cable affects customers in Haiti's western region, and it also had been severed earlier in the week.
