Recently, a similar protest took place at Yakmach town in Balochistan, where a large number of residents participated to show unity and solidarity. During the protest, the internet services were shut down so the protest did not get live coverage and timely updates.

The Baloch Yakjehti Committee highlighted," "Internet services were down during the protest. Despite several hurdles, disturbances and challenges created by state authorities, BYC will stand against oppression and will continue its mission to expose state atrocities."

The BYC has staged the protest under the theme," Breaking the Silence: Standing Against Enforced Disappearances" to raise their voices against the oppression meted out by the Pakistan forces. The committee is standing in solidarity against the ongoing oppression and human rights violations.

Till now protests have been staged in Karachi, Hub Chowki, Turbat, Dalbandin, Nushki, Kharan, Pamjgur and Khuzdar. These enforced disappearances of people and violent measures taken by Pakistan forces against the protestors have created a terror-like situation in Balochistan. (ANI)
