Waleed Khan survived the 2014 Peshawar School Massacre despite being shot eight times by the Taliban, but tragically lost 132 of his classmates that day 💔
India’s missile strikes on Pakistani airbases are deeply alarming. This dangerous escalation threatens the lives of 1.7 billion people across both nations.
The international community must act now to stop this madness before it’s too late.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the APS massacre. I am thinking of the 132 promising children who, by now, could have been doctors, engineers, artists, teachers, or entrepreneurs. Their lives, along with their big dreams, were tragically cut short. We can hardly imagine the depth of their parents’ pain. They are still waiting for justice.

Afghanistan is the only country in the world where millions of girls are prohibited from attending school beyond grade six, and all women are legally barred from work and free movement under the oppressive gender apartheid imposed by the Taliban.

🗣 ROOOOOOOOOOOOT!
Nobody has ever scored more Test match runs for England than Joe Root.
He is now the leading Test run scorer for his country - overtaking Sir Alastair Cook.
12,473 runs - and counting!

PAKISTAN: The horrific spate of extrajudicial killings of people accused of blasphemy in Pakistan highlight the government’s ongoing failure to uphold their obligation to respect and protect human rights, including the right to life, freedom of religion or belief and prohibition of discrimination.
Within a week, police have killed two individuals accused under Pakistan’s regressive blasphemy laws. On 19 September, a doctor accused of blasphemy was shot dead by police officers in a so-called ‘police encounter’ in Umarkot, Sindh; earlier on 12 September, a police officer shot dead a blasphemy suspect in custody in Quetta, Balochistan.
Highlighting the pattern of impunity for blasphemy related violence, the authorities have attempted to evade accountability as the family of the victim killed in Quetta has been pressured into forgiving the police officer under the country’s laws which allow for a victim’s heirs to forgive the accused in cases of murder or injuries.
Since May 2024, at least 4 people accused of blasphemy have been killed in mob violence in Sargodha (Punjab), Swat (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa), Quetta (Balochistan) and Mirpurkhas (Sindh).
Pakistani authorities should complete a thorough, impartial and independent investigation into the incidents and ensure those responsible are prosecuted in fair and transparent trials, without resorting to the death penalty. The government must also immediately repeal the blasphemy laws which have since long helped perpetuate discrimination and violence.
Zombie-style knives and machetes will be banned from 24 September.
Weapons should be surrendered to the police - failing to comply with the law could cost you two years behind bars.
For 3 years, the Taliban have showed us exactly who they are: misogynists who oppress girls and women. Their new laws banning Afghan women from speaking in public only further extend their system of gender apartheid. https://t.co/KjSazdGIEd
