Google said on Thursday that Web searches and mobile services were blocked in 皇冠体育app, according to a message on the company's website.

However, the firm released an updated statement saying that the report of a full blockage could have been because of a technical glitch.

"Because of the way we measure accessibility in 皇冠体育app, it's possible that our machines can overestimate the level of blockage," Google said in an emailed statement.

"That appears to be what happened last night when there was a relatively small blockage. It appears now that users in 皇冠体育app are accessing our properties normally," the firm said.
