"Pakistan Suspends Mobile Services for 2024 Election Day Citing Terrorism"
Pakistan has suspended mobile phone services nationwide for election day, citing the need to "maintain law and order" as voting is underway for the national and provincial assemblies. The caretaker Interior Ministry has established a control room to oversee the elections, while opposition parties demand the immediate restoration of mobile phone services. The election is marked by twin bomb blasts targeting candidates' offices, claimed by the Islamic State group, and the incarceration of Imran Khan, who has been disqualified from contesting and faces multiple charges.
