### App Id
dhp8pp3jdvcr8
### Region
us-west-2
### Amplify Console feature
Not applicable
### Describe the bug
Unable to access the Amplify app, both on *.amplifyapp.com domain and on custom domain that's registered on some ISPs in different locations.
Everything works fine in most places (including Singapore, India, US, etc.).
2 locations that do not work:
- Maldives
- Thailand (work on some ISP but not on other ISP)
I was told by Maldives ISP that AWS is blocking the access, but I don't have control over the CloudFront distribution of Amplify. `nslookup` properly resolves to CloudFront but it always have connection reset error.
### Expected behavior
AWS Amplify and/or CloudFront should be accessible in most places even under different ISPs, barring countries under embargo (which in this case Maldives and Thailand are not).
### Reproduction steps
1. Deploy a simple web app or React app on Amplify
2. Access the site from Maldives
### Build Settings

Research direction
Start by checking the Amplify app dhp8pp3jdvcr8 in us-west-2 and compare access to its amplifyapp.com and custom domains from Maldives and the affected Thai ISPs. Verify the reported nslookup results and connection resets; done means the site is reachable from the affected locations or the provider documents the confirmed access restriction and its cause.
