Citizens from the State of Jammu and Kashmir residing in Calgary, Canada, held a peaceful protest against an attack by Pakistani forces on a peaceful civilian population in Rawalakot. The attack—which involved the use of heavy weaponry and drones—resulted in the destruction of a home and the killing of three young civilians.
The protesters briefed the city’s mayor on the situation in the region and the dangers facing the civilian population. They urged the international community to intervene immediately, put an end to the massacre of innocent and unarmed civilians, and take action to ensure the protection of the civilian population.
The protesters emphasized that the fundamental human rights of the people of the State of Jammu and Kashmir—including the protection of their lives and property, and their right to live in peace—cannot be ignored under any circumstances.
We call upon the international community to break its silence and take immediate steps to ensure the protection of civilians.
