According to the BYC, the current trend marks a renewed escalation of oppression and brutality in Balochistan. The BYC also claims that Pakistan appears to be resolute in continuing its policy of Baloch genocide exclusively depending on force and violence to maintain its hold in the Balochistan region.
This act has further worsened the humanitarian crisis in the area, with multiple youths being killed in a single day and their mutilated bodies discarded without any regard to traditions and customs.
The BYC in its statement further called upon the international human rights organisations to take immediate action to address the severe human rights crisis unfolding in Balochistan. The State of Pakistan’s violent policies are endangering the lives of millions in the region, and swift intervention is needed to prevent further atrocities, it said
Prominent Baloch rights activist, Maharang Baloch in a post on X also raised her concerns over the issue.
