Several emphasized the ministry’s warning to the public to rely on official channels for authentic information. A few, like Daily Pakistan, used more alarmist language such as “FAKE NEWS ALERT,” while others, like the Express Tribune and Dunya News, focused on the ministry’s call for verification through official sources.
