Try this -> If an app won’t respond or seems frozen, you can close it, then open it again, see If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly or won’t open

If it doesn't help, remove and reinsert the SIM card.

If it doesn't help contact your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Ask also to check if the SIM tray is bent, as even a tiny misalignment can cause the SIM card to not fully connect with the internal contacts in your iPhone.
