Facebook, Instagram and Messenger down again

Facebook, Instagram and Messenger are experiencing issues leaving thousands of users worldwide without service.

All issues stem from the apps, except for those hitting Messenger - users say the messaging service is not working on desktop.

Daily Mail reports DownDetector, an online site that shows such outages, shows users in New York City are having problems with all three apps, along with those in Los Angeles, California and Phoenix, Arizona.

Users here in Fiji have also posted on Twitter that they are experiencing issues.

Instagram appears to have the most issue reports on DownDetector, followed by Facebook and then Messenger.

It is not clear why the services are down and when they will be up and running.

This is the second time Facebook and Instagram have crashed in less than a month - the last occurred on October 4.

The previous outage, which lasted for seven hours, was due to issues with its Domain Name System (DNS).
