Almost 7000 flights across the USA have been grounded per instructions from the Federal Aviation Administration until further notice “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety,”
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said it did not relate to a terror threat to the USA and not linked to yesterday’s global Microsoft outage. “There’s no indication as of yet that this was a nefarious attack against it. It’s just a telecommunications outage as of right now,” said Mullin.
This is only the 3rd time all departing flights have been grounded and there is no updates on the plane for flights already airborne or those outside the USA.

Law enforcement sources say this is not a cyberattack but FBI continues to monitor the situation.
