Pakistan Blocks Al Jazeera Website, Tightens Rules for Foreign Media Amid Kashmir Unrest
Pakistan restricted access to Al Jazeera's website and other news sites after its coverage of unrest and elections in Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting criticized Al Jazeera's reporting as 'poor-quality journalism' and an attempt by outside forces to question the election's fairness.
New rules require foreign journalists to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) to report outside Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad, affecting coverage of regions like AJK.
Pakistan's cyber crime authorities have also taken action against several YouTube channels for content critical of state institutions.
