A breakdown in Pakistan's national power grid plunged the country of 212 million people into darkness on Saturday night, officials said.
"A countrywide blackout has been caused by a sudden plunge in the frequency in the power transmission system," Pakistan's Power Minister Omar Ayub Khan said on Twitter.
He asked people across the country to remain calm.
This is Pakistan's most widespread power shutdown in the country since 2015.
