On July 14, at approximately 21:53 UTC, ThousandEyes detected routing instability affecting Cloudflare’s public DNS resolver 1.1.1.1. The issue occurred when TATA Communications (AS4755) announced the IP address block (1.1.1.0/24) that belongs to Cloudflare, resulting in a hijack that disrupted website access for some users. The issue was resolved at 22:19 UTC when TATA’s AS4755 withdrew the announcement of the 1.1.1.0/24 prefix and valid routing resumed.
