So @meileaben on twitter this morning notes:

Many #Zimbabwe Internet routes withdrawn around 9:30 UTC amidst civil unrest in the country. near-realtime on #RIPEstat here: https://stat.ripe.net/ZW  #OpenNetworkIntelligence #ZimbabweShutdown

wondering if anyone here has additional info on that.  Looing at stat.ripe.net/ZW now it looks as though one (out of an original 18, current 9) ASN has recovered, but kind of curious as to what exactly happened there.
