The Indian government has blocked 16 Pakistani YouTube channels accused of spreading misinformation related to the Pahalgam attack. These channels were reportedly involved in sharing fake narratives and propaganda against India. The move is part of New Delhi’s wider crackdown on fake news, especially during sensitive times.
