Telecommunications companies operating in Egypt confirmed their readiness on Saturday readiness to provide communication services to the residents of Gaza, who have been completely isolated after the Israeli occupation cut off all means of communication. 

Four major telecommunications companies operate in Egypt: Vodafone, Telecom Egypt, Etisalat Misr, &e, and Orange.

An official at Vodafone Egypt said that the company is ready to send mobile cell towers to the Egyptian city of Rafah, in order to cover up to 10 kilometers within the Gaza Strip if operated at maximum power.

The official indicated that this would not happen until coordination is made between the Egyptian and Palestinian sides. He stressed that Vodafone Egypt is “ready to provide telecommunications services to the residents of Gaza,” noting that the company has five mobile towers ready to be delivered.

This comes amid a complete blackout in Gaza after the Israeli occupation forces cut off all means of communication. massive regions in the Strip suffered from a complete internet outage, while its largest communications service provider announced that it had shut down all operations across Gaza after Israeli war jets destroyed the company's remaining infrastructure.

"All routes connecting Gaza to the outside world were destroyed" by Israeli strikes, Al Jawwal said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that on October 27, Gaza witnessed the most violent strikes since October 7, confirming that attacks are being carried out through air, land, and sea.
