Ранее глава Telegram Павел Дуров заявил, что речь идет о перегреве.
Massive overheating in one of the Telegram server clusters may cause some connection issues for European users within the next couple of hours. Apologies for the inconvenience – the problem is being solved.

В своем twitter платформа позже сообщила, что восстановила работу мессенджера для большинства пользователей:
The service is now restored for most of Europe, Africa, Russia and CIS, Iran and Middle East coming soon. Americas and SE Asia unaffected by the outage (the same outage also took offline the Amsterdam airport and ~18.000 households).
