India on Friday blocked the YouTube channel of Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif amid ongoing tension between the two countries following an attack in the Kashmir region.

"The content is currently unavailable in this country because of an order from the government related to national security or public order. For more details about government removal requests, please visit the Google Transparency Report," read a message on the blocked channel.

Earlier this week, the Indian government blocked 16 Pakistani YouTube channels for allegedly disseminating ‘false, provocative and communally sensitive content’ about India.

The country also objected to the BBC's reportage on the attack.
