Vodafone Group Plc, the world’s largest mobile-phone operator, said clients in the western part of the Netherlands aren’t receiving service after a fire in a network center in Rotterdam.

Customers in cities including Rotterdam and The Hague, and in Kennemerland, a region around Amsterdam, cannot call or be called, Anniek de Ruijter, a spokeswoman for Vodafone in the Netherlands, said by phone. About 700 transmission towers are out of service after the fire broke out this morning at the Rotterdam site, affecting both mobile and fixed lines, she said. The fire is now out.
