Facebook released an official statement confirming the technical issue.
Mudasir's Face-book post has sparked tension in the area.
Late Monday evening, thousands of users across the globe — specifically Asia found that they were unable to log in to Facebook. It was unclear what caused the error, however; many people from parts of New Zealand, Australia and North America were affected.
Users took to Twitter to express their disappointment over the given glitch. “The hashtags #facebookdown and #facebookisdown were gaining traction of Twitter within 10 minutes of the crash,” Stuff reported.
Later, Facebook released a statement saying, “Earlier today, some Facebook users were unable to access Facebook briefly due to a technical issue. We have now fixed the issue and apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
The site was apparently functional after 30 minutes of inactivity.
