Two Kashmiri youths were martyred by Pakistani forces with bullets to the head, how the massacre of Kashmiris is being carried out. The footage from Rawalakot shows crowds running under fire as state forces open fire on unarmed people. Witnesses and local reports said snipers were placed atop buildings and light machine guns along the march route, targeting protesters with headshots.
On 27 July, the forces that arrived from Pakistan committed atrocities against people who had peacefully come out for their basic rights in Rawalakot. Thousands had gathered to march towards Muzaffarabad after talks between the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) and authorities collapsed and a deadline to accept their demands for basic rights was missed. According to Amnesty International and media reports, security forces opened fire on the demonstrators, with JAAC claiming 19 people were killed that day and dozens injured, while eyewitnesses reported at least 14 killed on the evening of 27 July alone.
This is a video you must not have seen before because mobile internet has remained suspended in the region since June 5, and journalists and independent observers have been denied full access. JAAC has said over 67 people have been killed between June 5 and July 28, calling them martyrs, while reports say over 100 residents have lost their lives since June in firing by Pakistani security forces.
