Pakistan’s internet users may face slow speeds and disruptions for the next few weeks after damage to two major undersea cables near Yemen, vital for the country’s global connectivity. IT Secretary Zarrar Hasham confirmed that four to five cables were affected, causing difficulties in browsing, streaming, and online communication. Authorities have temporarily redirected bandwidth to alternative networks, but full restoration could take four to five weeks due to the need for specialized repair ships. Officials and experts stress the importance of diversifying infrastructure to prevent future disruptions.
