The PTA confirmed that the issue is global and not linked to any technical faults in Pakistan’s internet infrastructure.
“All other internet services across the country remain fully functional,” it said.
Independent internet monitor NetBlocks also reported that the outages being experienced by ‘X’ are international in nature and not related to any country-level internet disruptions or filtering.
The authority assured users that it is “continuing to monitor the situation and will keep the public informed of any significant updates.”
