Microsoft restores services after global outage

Microsoft said on Saturday that services had fully recovered across Teams, Outlook and its other products, ending a global outage that crippled online communications for businesses and governments for over 24 hours, the Korea Times reports. The company apologized on Friday for the disruption, ruling out a cyberattack, and reported a "broad recovery" for Outlook and other services. The outage, which began Thursday and lasted about 10 hours initially, disrupted operations at major Korean companies, leaving some employees unable to access emails and manage daily workflows, according to the Korea Times. South Korea's ICT ministry said Saturday it will inspect disruptions to domestic companies' operations following the outage, Yonhap reports. Korean Air said Saturday that US-bound flights had all resumed after the US lifted a nationwide ground stop prompted by a separate telecommunications outage, KBS World reports.
