Protests in Skardu Demand Action for Parachinar Crisis

In Skardu district of Pakistan-occupied Gilgit Baltistan, protests have continued for five days as residents demand urgent government intervention to address the humanitarian crisis in Parachinar, Kurram District. The protests, reported by Skardu TV, are driven by frustration over violence, killings, and road blockages affecting the region.

Parachinar is suffering from unrest, with over 100 children dying due to lack of medical care. Essential supply lines have been cut for months, preventing access to medicines and basic resources. Protesters in Skardu are showing solidarity with Parachinar, condemning the government's failure to reopen roads and provide relief.

Protest leaders emphasize their commitment to human rights, stating, "We cannot remain silent while the people of Parachinar are dying." They demand the government reopen roads, restore goods flow, and end the violence. The blockade has caused severe shortages of food and essentials, worsening conditions.

Despite ongoing protests, the government has not taken decisive action, increasing tensions and anger. Residents vow to continue protesting until demands are met, calling on international organizations to pressure the Pakistani government to resolve the crisis. As protests enter the fifth day, the situation remains tense, with locals determined to push for government intervention.
