SHAAL (QUETTA): The Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) has expressed concerns over the unfolding humanitarian crisis in the Zehri region of Khuzdar, Balochistan, as latest military offensives by Pakistani security forces enters its third week. In a strongly worded statement, the BYC said the Pakistani military was deliberately targeting civilians during the ongoing campaign. The committee stated that the region has been placed under a complete siege, with all entry and exit routes sealed off. “This is not a series of isolated incidents, this is a pattern of systematic human rights violations and acts that amount to war crimes,” said the BYC. Due to the media blackout and restricted access to the region, independent verification of the claims remains difficult.
