SRINAGAR: The month of October witnessed a harrowing escalation of violence in the Indian illegally-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, as Indian troops continued their campaign of state terrorism.
According to the data released by the Research Section of Kashmir Media Service, a total of 17 Kashmiris, including a woman and a child, fell victim to this ongoing conflict.
The heart-wrenching statistics reveal a grim reality. Among those who lost their lives, 11 were brutally killed in fake encounters or while in the custody of Indian troops and police, scattered across various districts in the troubled territory. It is a stark reminder of the perils faced by innocent civilians living in the midst of this protracted conflict.
The aftermath of these tragic events has left indelible scars on the social fabric of Kashmir. Two women are now forced to bear the unbearable burden of widowhood, while ten innocent children are left orphaned, their lives forever altered by the actions of the Indian forces.
The international community continues to closely monitor the situation in the region, as these acts of violence and brutality call for urgent attention and resolution. The plight of the people of Kashmir, who yearn for peace and stability, remains at the forefront of discussions among world leaders and advocates for human rights.
As the world grapples with the ongoing crisis in Jammu and Kashmir, the need for dialogue, diplomacy, and the protection of human rights becomes increasingly evident. The tragic loss of 17 lives in the month of October serves as a stark reminder of the pressing need for a peaceful and just resolution to this long-standing conflict.
