Due to increased security concerns, mobile data services have been banned throughout Balochistan, including Quetta, the provincial capital.
According to sources, the outage is anticipated to last for a week.
In the district of Kohlu, mobile internet users experienced significant challenges as a result of the closure. In Sibi, Loralai, and Dukki, internet service was abruptly cut off.
A suspension is in place for the entire province.
The decision was taken as a precautionary security step in response to intelligence assessments indicating possible risks to public safety, according to official sources.
In Pakistan, such preventive shutdowns are not unusual, especially during times of high risk or during delicate national occasions.
