WILLEMSTAD – On Monday night the Rio Canario fire brigade had to be dispatched because of burning cables from Flow and Aqualectra. Several cables connected by lampposts were on fire.
Experts from the two companies were quickly on site and found that the fires had been caused by a so-called break in Flow's fiber-optic cables.
The fire had consequences for various neighborhoods that had to deal with internet outages. In Kwartier, Amerikankamp, Sun Valley, Suffisant, Muizenberg, Dein, Rio Canario, Brievengat, Matancia and the surrounding area, among others, suffered from interruptions.
