Internet and social media issues in Pakistan on Friday started to be resolved, with social media apps gradually coming back online in various regions.

Internet users across the country, including business professionals, freelancers, educational institutions, and students, had compained of suffering immense frustration due to slow internet speeds and unresponsive social media platforms.

The disruptions not only affected individual users but also inflicted significant financial losses on the nation.

The internet outage had rendered users unable to download media from social platforms, struggling to send and receive images, videos, voice messages, and other documents.
On Friday, internet services began to gradually restore in various parts of the country, with social media apps slowly coming back online, allowing users to resume downloading data.
Earlier, the ISPs Association had warned that if the internet and social media services remained down, Pakistan’s economic condition would worsen further.
Global companies reliant on online operations might turn to other countries, leaving Pakistani freelancers in jeopardy.

Meanwhile, a petition against internet disruptions was heard in the Lahore High Court today, with the court issuing notices to the relevant parties and demanding a response.
