Pakistan has banned the international news channel Al Jazeera following its coverage of the disputed region of Pakistan‑occupied Kashmir. Authorities say the channel’s reporting was "yellow journalism", which the government considers sensational and misleading. The ban restricts Al Jazeera’s broadcast and online presence within the country, limiting the channel’s reach to Pakistani audiences. This move follows earlier measures against other media outlets perceived as critical of the state.
