Ask HN: Is AWS me-south-1 down or gone?

We are having alerts on our systems where we can't reach me-south-1 S3. In the AWS console, we are unable to load the region. Firefox can't load the console.

Looks like there’s a problem with this site

There have been issues due to the War in Iran with that region but it hasn't completely gone down...yet. AWS took down UAE completely last month. I'm wondering if we are about to see some big news regarding Bahrain.
