Broadcaster Al Arabiya says someone has been trying to slow down its website since Egypt's army removed President Mohamed Morsi. 

In a news post, the company says the wave of attacks started July 3 and peaked on July 8. According to its techs, the wave of attacks started in Egypt, but was soon distributed to different parts of the world. Until it can get a handle on the problem, the site is taking down its comment and search functions. 

Al Arabiya says it faces "constant attack from various countries" on its online and broadcast operations.
