US President Donald Trump's Twitter account briefly vanished on Thursday but has since been restored, the social media company said.
An employee deactivated the @realdonaldtrump account, it said, clarifying that it had been their last day in the job.
The account was down for 11 minutes and Twitter is now investigating.
The president brushed off the outage in a new tweet on Friday, suggesting it showed the impact he was having.
