The failure of cell phone reception in Arys city is due to the damage of electricity lines.

“The issue of lack of cell phone reception in Arys city is due to problems with electricity. Following the damage the base stations switched to batteries, but these batteries are not meant to be working for a long period of time, which is why there were shortages of cell phone reception,” stated Zhumagaliyev.
