Access to social media platforms in Zimbabwe was reinstated on Monday, hours after a court deemed the government's internet shutdown illegal.
CNN reports Zimbabwean authorities clamped down on internet use last week, after violent protests broke out over President Emmerson Mnangagwa's announcement of a 150% hike on fuel prices.
Over the weekend, internet access was restored only partially.
CNN says a spokesperson for Mnangagwa said social media remained blocked to prevent it being used as a tool for coordinating violence.
Zimbabwe's High Court has ruled that the Security Minister Owen Ncube did not have the authority to force mobile operators to block services.
