Mobile services suspended in Pakistan due to security threats

Islamabad: Mobile services in Pakistan have been suspended due to the "deteriorating security situation", the caretaker government said on Thursday as the people were voting to elect a new administration, a day after twin terror attacks killed at least 30 people.

The interior ministry said it has decided to



“temporarily suspend mobile services across the country” in light of the “deteriorating security situation”.

In a statement, the ministry said, “Recent surge in terrorist activities resulting in precious lives have stirred the security environment in the country.”
