ISLAMABAD (Reuters) -Pakistan's interior ministry said on Wednesday it had blocked access to social media platform X around the time of February's election on national security concerns, confirming a long-suspected shutdown.
Users in Pakistan have reported problems using X, formerly known as Twitter, since mid-February, but the government had made no official announcement on the matter until now.
