KATHMANDU: A widespread outage has hit Facebook, leaving thousands of users unable to access their accounts through web browsers.

The disruptions began around 1:30 PM on Sunday. Users attempting to log in or browse the site via desktop are encountering an error message stating that their account is “Account Temporarily Unavailable.”

Fortunately, the glitch seems to be isolated. While the web interface is completely down for many, the official Facebook mobile application continues to function normally.
