Kintore Community Struggles: Six Days Without Mobile Service Due to Telstra Outage
The remote Australian community of Kintore, located 530 kilometers west of Alice Springs, has been without mobile service for six days due to a Telstra outage caused by flooding. This has led to a lack of emergency calls, electronic payments, and even ways to top up electricity meters. Food and fuel supplies are running low, and Telstra technicians cant reach the site for repairs. Locals are frustrated, health workers worry about delayed emergency responses, and dialysis patients feel vulnerable. Telstra suggests using satellite phones, but coverage is spotty. The community hopes for quick restoration to ease daily hardships.
