The National Telecom Regulatory Authority (NTRA) approved the use of the first voice-over 4G LTE (VoLTE) service in the country.
The NTRA's approval came after telecom operators met the technical and regulatory requirements necessary for launching the service.
VoLTE is a highly-efficient wireless communication technology, which provides high-quality voice calls for subscribers, especially with regard to voice purity and clarity, without incurring any additional cost.
Around 15 million mobile users are due to benefit from VoLTE service, the NTRA said
