Government officials were not immediately available for comment.

Mohamed al-Yamani, spokesman for the Ministry of Electricity, told CBC television earlier the disruption was most likely due to an internal problem in the central Cairo building complex that houses the state television channels. (Writing by Michael Georgy; Editing by Kevin Liffey)
