International calls grow as Kashmiri migrants condemn human‑rights violations in Pakistan‑occupied Kashmir

The protest in Brussels added to a series of demonstrations by Kashmiri diaspora communities across Europe. Earlier this week, thousands marched through Bologna, Italy, expressing solidarity with protesters in Azad Kashmir and condemning the Pakistani army’s reported use of live ammunition on unarmed civilians.

Kashmiri groups, together with the Joint Action for Awaami Committee, appealed to the global community to intervene. They cited the Jammu‑Kashmir Human Rights Observatory’s findings of 93 deaths in the last two months, urging the United Nations to monitor the situation and call for an end to collective punishment tactics.
