AWS says recovery of the attacked Middle East (UAE) region will take several months; reports on the situation for the first time in about two months

AWS said its Middle East (UAE) region was damaged in the conflict and is no longer reliably supporting applications.

Recovery is expected to take several months; billing has been temporarily suspended for the affected region.

AWS is urging customers to migrate accessible workloads to other regions and restore backups from elsewhere.

The disruption highlights how regional conflict can impact critical cloud infrastructure and business continuity.
