Meanwhile, the situation in Balochistan continues to worsen as the Pakistani defence forces have brutally cracked down on the Baloch community, while they gathered for the Baloch National Gathering.
The protestors allege that Pakistani defence forces are trying to stop them from participating in nationwide gatherings that hold the government and the defence forces accountable for their “brutality.”
Notably, since July 28, the Pakistani authorities have detained hundreds in connection with the Baloch National Gathering, a march aimed at highlighting human rights issues in the region.
The ongoing unrest in Balochistan involves significant human rights violations and a push for greater autonomy and fair resource distribution in the province. (ANI)
