Karachi: Internet users across Pakistan faced major disruptions on Thursday after a fault was reported in one of the country’s main undersea cables.
The outage sparked a wave of speculation online, with many jokingly blaming “sharks” once again — a reference to past incidents where shark bites were believed to have damaged submarine cables.
According to sources in the telecom sector, technical teams are working with international partners to identify and repair the fault. Authorities have assured that restoration efforts are underway and services will normalize soon.
Meanwhile, social media platforms were flooded with memes and reactions as users expressed frustration over the slowdown in connectivity.
