London: Baloch nationalist leader and President of the Free Balochistan Movement Hyrbyair Marri in a statement posted on his official X handle has said that The recent Pakistani airstrike on a rehabilitation Hospital in Kabul resulting in the slaughter of 400 unarmed Afghan civilians and more than 250 were injured, is another grim reminder of Pakistan’s lies and propaganda, self-proclaimed defender of the Muslim world. I extend my deepest condolences to the bereaved and pray for the swift and full recovery of all those who have been injured. I condemn this heinous crime against humanity committed by Pakistan. It is a continuation of the Pakistani Punjabi expansionist agenda. The deliberate destabilisation of Afghanistan through state-sponsored violence and its barbaric attacks on innocent civilians and critical infrastructure must be defeated with unity.
As neighbouring nations, the people of Balochistan and Afghanistan have shared a deep-rooted bond long before the artificial creation of Pakistan. Our histories, cultures, traditions, and borders are intertwined, built on trust and mutual respect. In times of hardship, the people of Afghanistan stood as trusted allies with the Baloch nation and we have always reciprocated that solidarity in their times of need.
Today, once again, Pakistan’s occupying forces continue their anti-Afghan aggression through air force and drone strikes, exploiting territories that rightfully belong to the Baloch and Pashtun peoples. This illegal occupation has been the primary source of instability in Afghanistan created by Pakistan. We firmly believe that lasting peace in Afghanistan will only be achieved when these occupying forces are expelled from our lands, sea, and airspace.
The Baloch nation reiterates its unwavering support for the people of Afghanistan. We stand shoulder to shoulder against Pakistani Punjabi aggression. A future of peace and prosperity lies in cooperation between our two nations. A sovereign, united Balochistan will ensure that its ports serve as gateways of opportunity, welcoming Afghan trade and enabling access to regional and global markets, including those in Central Asia and Europe.
Pakistan has consistently demonstrated that it has no genuine interest in peaceful relations with Afghanistan, regardless of who governs Kabul. Its expansionist ambitions and anti-Afghan policies have acted as a destabilising force, Pakistan is a cancer upon regional peace.
This is a defining moment. Both nations must unite, to defend our territories, protect our economic interests, preserve our shared cultural heritage, and strengthen the bonds of brotherhood. Together, through unity and determination, we can confront and overcome the forces that threaten our sovereignty and regional stability.
