I see something similar to this coming out of Level3 from Demon's direction.

The was mentioned in comp.protocols.dns.bind, where some additional
traceroutes and information is available, although it is clearly(?) a
routing issue and I suggested here was a good place to ask for help.

Still we have enough root servers to be going on with while it is fixed,
lets just hope no one hijacked it.

Looks OK from SURFnet (AS1103) through Level3:

Hm - both through 3561 (CW) and 3549 (GBLX) in Europe (tracing from
source-IP's on our border routers from the respective providers'
netblocks, and our own IP's), we have no connectivity. Both paths go
via Level3.
