Aviation collapse in the USA: about 15 thousand flights were canceled and delayed overnight.
The communication failure affected all 22 regional and scheduled flight control centers throughout the country for several hours. Now the airports are gradually returning to work.

At the same time, the Microsoft shutdown affected hospitals, courts and businesses. The authorities deny any connection between the two incidents.
