As tensions simmer in Balochistan, the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) gears up for January 25—’Baloch Genocide Remembrance Day’—with a worldwide offensive against Pakistan’s alleged human rights abuses. The human rights body beckons Baloch everywhere to join protests, talks, briefings, videos, debates, broadcasts, podcasts, online forums, and artistic expressions.
BYC’s compelling X message redefines genocide: not just slaughter, but a creeping annihilation via identity-targeted neglect—famine-like economics, disease proliferation, squalor, and psy-ops, compounded by assassinations, abductions, drones, and squad-led executions. Balochistan’s wealth fuels this, they assert.
January 25 evokes 2014’s Totak nightmare: over 100 youths snatched by intel-backed killers from a hidden camp, bodies horrifically desecrated in pits. Formally set at January 2024’s epic Quetta assembly, the day honors all mass atrocities, with additional graves signaling systemic extermination. Families languish, identities lost forever.
‘One identity unites the dead: Balochistan’s sons and daughters,’ BYC laments. Dalbandin’s 2023 rally in a plundered belt vowed unbreakable solidarity. Pakistani death squads, they claim, perpetuate vanishings and murders with official complicity.
This global push seeks to shatter silence, fostering unity for Baloch survival. Amid Balochistan’s strife, January 25 promises heightened visibility, potentially spurring investigations and aid. The Baloch quest for recognition underscores a broader fight against suppressed voices in conflicted regions.
