States of Guernsey websites went "temporarily offline" again, it confirmed.

The government website and other sites, including education, were affected by the disruption from late on Tuesday.

It is the third time States websites have gone down due to technical error since November.

It said the crash was caused by testing and maintenance of its power supplies and services were restored in the "early afternoon" of Wednesday.

The States apologised for "any inconvenience", thanking islanders for their "continued patience".
