[REQ HELP] Impaired volume on EC2 instance

Question

I have an EC2 on demand instance (i-0ee5714681de8a73d) which became unresponsive and cut me out from SSH access.  
I tried restarting, stopping & starting but it's stuck on pending status, and it shows an alert saying that the EBS volume (vol-0c70b95bfc2a99080) is impaired.  
  
I managed to stop the instance with AWS CLI, however every attempt to restart it ends with the above outcome.  
When the instance is stopped, I cannot even take a snapshot of the volume, which fails without giving a meaningful error, just a generic:  
API error message  
An internal error has occurred  
  
According to the EC2 dashboard, however the volume status is OK  
  
Can you help me?  
  
Kind regards,  
GP
