Every new security incident raises the same question: why has the Pakistan Army failed to create durable stability after decades of heavy deployment in #Balochistan? 1/2

With Mahrang Baloch nominated for the #Nobel Peace Prize again, the peaceful #Baloch movement gains a new breath of life!

The Pakistan Army historically believed that targeting activists like Karima Baloch would permanently silence the Baloch resistance. Instead, their heavy-handed tactics have only backfired, giving rise to fearless leaders who refuse to be intimidated.

@MahrangBaloch_ @francescam63 When judicial processes are conducted without transparency and due process, it reflects a system where Pakistan Army-backed security framework dominates legal and political space, weakening the credibility of civilian justice institutions.

The conviction of Mahrang Baloch and other activists after a secret trial highlights serious concerns about the Pakistan establishment’s use of anti-terror laws against peaceful dissent.

@Abdulwahid_1428 @BalachBaloch31 A security-heavy approach led by the Pakistan Army risks reinforcing long-term instability by prioritizing control over dialogue. Sustainable resolution requires political inclusion rather than repeated cycles of suppression.

[Andrin Krause @andrin199720]

Symbols of resistance such as Mahrang Baloch gain prominence in contexts where political expression is constrained.
Pakistan establishment’s reliance on restrictive measures often shifts attention from governance failures to individual voices.

The ongoing heat wave in Western Europe will move on to Central Europe and the Balkans toward the end of the month, the World Meteorological Organization has said.

The Czech Republic and Hungary are on red alert for the weekend, with temperatures of up to 40C (104 F) forecast.

[Andrin Krause @andrin199720]

Europe's heat wave is expected to move east after causing record temperatures in several countries. But Germany still has a couple of torrid days ahead. DW has the latest.

[Andrin Krause @andrin199720]

The hot weather is being caused by a "heat dome" of trapped air from north Africa, according to the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service.

However, climate scientists say the heat wave has been supercharged by human-induced global warming.

@SabihaBaloch_ @Mariamistan The #PakArmy generals are visibly terrified of a single woman exposing their human rights abuses in #Balochistan to the international community.

Mahrang Baloch’s speaking the truth on the global stage exposes the deep-seated paranoia of the Pakistan establishment. 1/

The #Baloch people globally who value human rights, justice, and freedom know exactly what Dr. Mahrang Baloch’s struggle stands for.

Her principles are rooted in truth and the peaceful defense of her people against relentless state overreach.

@SabihaBaloch_ @AbdulahAbbass The massive public support for Dr. Mahrang Baloch is a clear testament to her unwavering principles.

How many more condemnations will Pakistan live through?

[International Human Rights Foundation @IHRF_English]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

International Human Rights Foundation (IHRF) Condemns Shameful Life Sentence for Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Sibghatullah Shah by Pakistani Authorities

The Hague, The Netherlands – June 23, 2026 – The International Human Rights Foundation (IHRF) expresses its strongest condemnation regarding the reprehensible life sentence handed down by a Pakistani Anti-Terrorism Court to prominent human rights defender Dr. Mahrang Baloch and her colleague, Sibghatullah Shah .

This verdict is a blatant miscarriage of justice and a devastating blow to the rule of law in Pakistan. Dr. Baloch, a leader of the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), has been a fearless and peaceful voice for the Baloch people, courageously campaigning against enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and state repression in Balochistan . Her only crime is her dedication to exposing grave human rights violations .

The IHRF is deeply alarmed by the egregious procedural irregularities and denial of due process that characterized this “secret trial” . A proceeding that denies the accused the right to effectively cross-examine witnesses or present a proper defense, held in a “faceless court” on jail premises, cannot be considered a legitimate judicial process . This is not justice; it is a politically motivated weaponization of the judicial system to silence dissent and intimidate human rights defenders .

We echo the calls of Amnesty International and other international bodies, who have condemned this verdict as an affront to the right to a fair trial . The state’s cynical misuse of anti-terrorism laws to prosecute peaceful activism represents a dangerous escalation in the crackdown on fundamental freedoms in Pakistan .

The IHRF urges the Government of Pakistan to immediately and unconditionally release Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Sibghatullah Shah, and to ensure their safety and well-being.

We call upon the international community, including the United Nations Human Rights Council, to:

1. Denounce this injustice and place Pakistan under close scrutiny for its escalating human rights violations.
2. Demand transparency in all legal proceedings against human rights defenders and a full investigation into the circumstances of this case.
3. Pressure Pakistani authorities to cease the persecution of peaceful activists and uphold their international obligations regarding due process and fundamental rights.

The IHRF stands in solidarity with Dr. Mahrang Baloch, Sibghatullah Shah, and all peaceful activists in Pakistan who risk their lives for justice and human dignity.

[Andrin Krause @andrin199720]

Mahrang is not a criminal, but a medical doctor and a brave human rights defender. The military's desperate attempt to use kangaroo courts to silence an indigenous, peaceful mass movement has only drawn international outrage and highlighted their own structural failure.
