Gmail users in Pakistan and other parts of the world are facing issues with the email service. Users said that they are unable to send attachments through Gmail. The outage appears to have affected G Suite users as well. Apart from Gmail, Google’s Drive has also been affected. According to some users, Drive failed to upload files, download files, and share them with others.
According to a down detector, the outage began around 11 AM today. The tracking website says most of the users have faced issues with attachments. Some users have also complained about facing issues with log-in and receiving messages. A live outage map shows users in India, parts of Europe, and the Americas have also been affected.
Google has also confirmed the service interruption. On its G Suite Status Dashboard, the company wrote: “We are continuing to investigate this issue. We will provide an update by 8/20/20, 1:30 PM detailing when we expect to resolve the problem.”
