Pakistan has reportedly blocked Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter amid a broader crackdown on protests.
The blockages come after six people died and 200 others were injured after authorities attempted to clear Islamist protests from highways near the capital of Islamabad, according to the Associated Press.
Pakistan also instituted a media blackout, with many of its major TV stations going off the air.
We are aware of reports that the Pakistani government has taken action to block Twitter service, as well as other social media services, and that users are having difficulty using Twitter in Pakistan. We are monitoring the situation and hope service will be fully restored soon.
