Various reports of an airstrike/quadcopter attacks on civilians in Surab district, as reported on social media and by Balochistan-based online media outlets, are deeply disturbing. The images coming out of the area are very horrifying that show women, men and children under the rubble, disfigured bodies and some uncovered in blood.
As if enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and the criminalisation of dissent through the Fourth Schedule and collective punishment were not enough, the government and military establishment now appears to have resorted to airstrikes and quadcopter attacks against civilian populations.
My heart cries with the loss of innocent lives and pictures of children killed in the attacks shared on social media should be a matter of concern and shame for authorities. One can’t make peace with killing innocent children.
The family members of the civilians killed in the attacks are staging a sit in on main highway with 5 dead bodies of their loved ones. According to locals, two dead bodies were very disfigured and that were buried. At least 20 were injured and some bodies are still under the rubble.
I call for a full, independent, and transparent investigation into this incident. I also urge Pakistan’s civil society organizations and human rights groups to speak out against this barbarism. Silence must not allow such violence to become normalized in Balochistan.

This is how Pakistan marks its formation and existence, through the killing of innocent Baloch civilians, including children, and through genocide. Last night, Pakistani forces bombed the town of Gondan in Surab, Balochistan. At least 20 bodies have been recovered from the rubble, while many others remain injured and in need of urgent medical assistance.
The affected area is surrounded by Pakistani forces, restricting access for rescue teams, medical staff, ambulances, and journalists. Blocking humanitarian assistance and independent documentation compounds the grave human rights violations and demands immediate international attention.
I urge journalists, medical teams, humanitarian organizations, and people around the world to demand immediate access to the affected area, ensure medical assistance reaches survivors.

HRCP deplores the conviction of @MahrangBaloch_ and other members of the BYC. Regrettably, the state has continued its policy of dealing with advocacy for fundamental rights in the same way as it deals with militancy, leading to executive and judicial decisions that are lopsided and prejudiced. We demand a review of the ATC's decision at the earliest and the initiation of a political dialogue in Balochistan.
مارا چہ اے گپ ءَ آشنا بوهگی اِنت
کہ
همُک جنگ ءَ مردُم باج نہ بارت
ءُ
همُک جنگ ءَ شکست هم نہ وارت،
جنگ
مارا بس اے گپ ءَ سوج دئینت
کہ
تو تُری سَتر نزور ئے
بلے
پدا هم زندگ ئے.
ماہ رنگ بلوچ کو عمر قید سنانا دراصل نوجوانوں کو یہ پیغام دینا ہے کہ یہاں پرامن جدوجہد کی کوئی گنجائش نہیں مگر تاریخ گواہ ہے کہ عطاء اللہ مینگل، خیربخش مری، بینظیر بھٹو، نواز شریف اور عمران خان سمیت کئی سیاسی رہنماؤں کو سزائیں ملیں اور وقت نے فیصلہ کیا کہ کون درست تھا اور کون غلط۔
ایک دن وہ بھی آئے گا جب جنہوں نے ہمارے گھروں سے عید کی خوشیاں چھینی ہیں، انہی کے گھروں میں ماتم ہوگا اور ہمارے گھروں میں عید، اور ہمیں اس دن تک صبر اور انتظار ہے۔

In this video, Dawood is dancing with his friend’s mother at his friend’s wedding. You can see the innocence and happiness on his face. How could we ever forget his smile? We demand his safe release.

جبری گمشدگی محض ایک انسان کی گمشدگی نہیں ہوتی، یہ دراصل ایک پورے خاندان کی زندگی سے سکون، مسکراہٹ اور یقین کے چھن جانے کا نام ہے گمشدہ شخص پر شاید تشدد کا ایک لمحہ گزرے، مگر اس کے پیچھے رہ جانے والے اپنے پیارے ہر لمحہ، ہر سانس کے ساتھ ایک نہ ختم ہونے والی اذیت جیتے ہیں۔
