Amazon CloudFront Distribution Blocks Access from Certain Countries

Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) that distributes website or application content across multiple edge locations worldwide. However, the distribution may block access from certain countries due to geo-restrictions.

If you encounter a 403 error when trying to access an app or website hosted on CloudFront, it’s likely because your location is blocked by the Amazon CloudFront configuration. This issue might be caused by excessive traffic or a configuration error in the distribution.

To resolve the issue, try visiting the website again later or contact the owner for assistance. If you’re using CloudFront to distribute content to customers, review the CloudFront documentation to troubleshoot and prevent similar errors.
