Baloch Yakjehti Committee to protest in Balochistan on Eid
The Baloch Yakjehti Committee has announced it will hold a protest in Balochistan against genocide in the region on Eid.
The spokesperson for the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) stated that protests will take place across Balochistan on Eid as part of the fifth phase of the ongoing movement against the Baloch genocide.
Additionally, the BYC extended its support to the protest call by Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) in Karachi and Quetta against enforced disappearances.
"The Baloch nation is currently enduring systematic genocide based on its identity, including enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, military operations, forced displacements, economic oppression, and other atrocities," the group said in a statement.
The BYC has initiated a movement against this genocide, including a prolonged sit-in in Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan.
"However, despite these efforts, the state persists in its policy of Baloch genocide, with enforced disappearances continuing unabated," the group said.
Moreover, extrajudicial killings of those subjected to enforced disappearances persist.
Recently, two Baloch youths who forcibly disappeared from Lyari last year were extrajudicially killed. The Baloch Yakjehti Committee's campaign against the Baloch genocide is currently in its fifth phase.
"We call upon the Baloch people to actively engage in this resistance movement against the Baloch genocide and to fully participate in the protests occurring in their respective areas on the day of Eid," the group said.
