Pakistan has blocked access to Al Jazeera after the Qatari broadcaster's coverage of protests and election unrest in Pakistan-administered Kashmir (PoK). The move comes amid increasing tensions over Al Jazeera’s reporting, which the Pakistani government has criticized as 'yellow journalism' driven by external actors seeking to delegitimize the polls. This is not the first time Pakistan has restricted access to Al Jazeera; similar incidents occurred in 2011 and 2017.
