PORT VILA: Vanuatu's government said on Thursday it was slowly getting its communications back online following a cyberattack that knocked out emergency services, email and phone lines on the South Pacific island nation for weeks.
Chief information officer Gerard Metsan said "70 percent of the government network" had now been restored, including crucial emergency lines for ambulance, police and fire services. He did not give details of which services remained affected but said all government departments were back online after some hardware was replaced.
