Disruption in social media platform X’s service reported nationwide: Netblocks

ISLAMABAD: A nationwide disruption in social media platform X’s (formerly Twitter) service has been reported in Pakistan due to the "escalating unrest and protests" over allegations of election fraud, according to Internet tracking organisation NetBlocks.

In a post on X, the organisation added that the disruption took place “following a high-level resignation and public admission of vote manipulation by a senior election official”.

The confirmation from NetBlocks came after users of the website complained of facing difficulties loading its webpage.
