Al Jazeera's live-updates page tracks a Microsoft outage that began around 16:00 GMT Thursday, knocking out Outlook and disrupting Teams and other Microsoft 365 services across 74 countries. It reports fallout including Norwegian ministries and police, the Danish parliament, Deutsche Bahn, Euronext, and NHS England using paper records, while Microsoft blames elevated server load and says there is no sign of a cyberattack; analyst Rupert Goodwins says such failures often stem from faulty updates.
