Ostap,

Why was this prefix revoked? And what is your interest in the matter?  I ask because, of late, there have been attempts 
to lockdown African Internet access by various political factions, for example the situation in Uganda.

Hello,

I'm in need off a RADB contact.
I have reached out to them multiple times the past 72 hours requesting urgent removal of all IRR records for a 
recently revoked afrinic /14
However they did not reply and did not remove any records which belong to this unallocated ip space.
This concerns 196.52.0.0/14, this massive block got revoked by afrinic approximately 4 days ago and is now 
unallocated.
Nothing in this /14 should be routed.
However, about 350 prefixes of various sizes inside this /14 are still announced.
If RADB removes all these IRR's, the routability of these 350 ip hijacks will greatly be reduced.
