With emergency phone numbers compromised, emergency services in regions such as Valencia, Aragón, and the Basque Country resorted to sharing alternative mobile contact numbers via social media to ensure public safety. Similarly, local authorities in Catalonia and Extremadura confirmed disruptions but reassured citizens that contingency plans were implemented to mitigate the impact. The Andalusian government added that while the emergency service issues were widespread, they were actively working to restore functionality.

By late morning, both Telefónica and Spain’s minister for digital transformation, Óscar López, announced that full service had been regained, thanking the company for their swift response during the crisis. Telefónica serves over 41 million users and maintains a near monopoly on the country's landlines. Following the outage, Downdetector reported heightened connectivity concerns not only with Telefónica but also with other major providers like Movistar, O2, and Orange.

The recent series of network disruptions reignited public frustration, especially after last month's massive 18-hour power outage that halted travel and forced businesses to close, drawing sharp criticism for the government's handling of the situation and raising questions about Spain's infrastructure resilience.
