I’ve been inside this facility in Kabul.
It’s a vast drug rehabilitation centre where thousands battling addiction are brought for treatment — part of a desperate effort to confront one of the country’s worst social crises.
Tonight it’s burning. https://t.co/lQZMwdvTK7
BREAKING: More videos from tonight's Pakistani airstrikes which hit a drug rehabilitation hospital in Kabul, killing or wounding an unspecified number of people, according to an Afghan Taliban spokesperson.
Pakistan’s government rejects this, claiming they targeted "military installations".

رمضان کا تو احترام کر لیتے! کم از کم اس مقدس مہینے میں ظلم سے باز آ جاتے۔ معصوم اور عمر رسیدہ افراد کو چوروں اور ڈاکوؤں کی طرح بندوق کی نوک پر اغوا کر کے اپنے گناہوں پر پردہ نہیں ڈال سکتے۔ایک ظلم چھپانے کے لیے دوسرا، دوسرے کے لیے تیسرا—یہ کب تک چلے گا؟ کیا تمہیں خدا کا خوف نہیں؟
Update on Dr. Mahrang Baloch
My mother and I visited the jail to see my sister, Dr. Mahrang Baloch today. We were forced to wait for eight hours and were then only allowed to speak with her over the telephone, separated by a thick glass wall.
The jail staff is undergoing a complete overhaul, with new personnel being brought in. The jail superintendent has already been transferred, and other officials are reportedly next in line. According to the jail staff, the prison is under strict control of intelligence agencies, with surveillance cameras installed throughout. A separate room is being prepared for meetings, equipped with cameras, microphones, and other monitoring devices.
Despite the High Court’s directive allowing us to meet Mahrang, we are still being denied in-person visits. Her rights as a prisoner are being blatantly violated.
Mahrang has fallen severely ill due to food poisoning and has been sick for the past three days. Her condition worsened last night. We have repeatedly requested that jail authorities allow a doctor to examine her, but no medical specialist has been permitted to visit. Yesterday, a junior doctor conducted a brief check-up, which was entirely inadequate. Beebow informed me that Mahrang was unwell throughout the night.
We demand that an independent medical board of experienced doctors be allowed to examine her immediately. She appears extremely weak and fragile, and we strongly believe something is seriously wrong with her health.
I appeal civil society, the media, and the legal community to take immediate action, ensuring that court orders are enforced and that my sister receives the urgent medical care and justice she deserves.

ریاستِ پاکستان نے بلوچستان سے بلوچوں کو ختم کرنے کا حتمی فیصلہ کر لیا ہے۔ صرف گزشتہ روز 41 بلوچوں کو جبری طور پر لاپتہ کر دیا گیا، جن میں اشفاق بلوچ بھی شامل ہیں، جن کے ایک بھائی، شہزاد بلوچ، کو 2022 میں پہلے ماورائے عدالت قتل کیا گیا تھا۔ جس کے خلاف خاندان نے بی وائی سی کے ہمراہ 55 دنوں تک کوئٹہ ریڈ زون میں دھرنا دیا تھا۔
اس وقت جبری گمشدگی کا شکار افراد کے لواحقین نے کراچی-کوئٹہ شاہراہ کو تین مقامات پر دھرنا دے کر بند کر رکھا ہے۔میں بلوچ قوم سے اپیل کرتی ہوں ان احتجاجی دھرنوں میں اپنی شرکت کو یقینی بنائے۔
