Popular messaging platform WhatsApp suffered another global outage in less than a month.

According to The Independent, the people affected from the mystery outage have taken to social media to vent their fury.

A spokesperson for Whatsapp said, "WhatsApp users around the world are unable to access the service. We apologise for the inconvenience and are working to fix the issue as soon as possible."
Just after midnight, social media was flooded with users across the world tweeting with #whatsappdown to report problems in sending messages.
Users have taken to Twitter to express their annoyance and confusion about the situation.
One user tweeted, "#WhatsApp goes down and everyone rushes to check if it's just them! #whatsappdown."
Another user wrote, "So did you try to restart your phone and whatsapp did not work yet? Well yes #whatsappdown."
