Military Crackdown Intensifies in IIOJK

Indian forces escalate their crackdown in Jammu, intensifying IIOJK’s suffering. As military operations increase, the region’s future grows more uncertain under ongoing occupation.

Indian troops have launched yet another aggressive cordon-and-search operation (CASO) in Jammu district of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK). Early this morning, gunfire erupted along the International Border in the RS Pura Sector, as confirmed by local police. Following the incident, security forces swiftly cordoned off the area, initiating a large-scale search that continued without pause.

This latest military action underscores India’s relentless use of force to exert control over IIOJK, perpetuating a climate of fear and unrest. The frequent and unrelenting CASO operations have become a hallmark of India’s strategy in the region, aimed at crushing resistance and silencing dissenting voices under the guise of security.

Human rights groups have repeatedly condemned these aggressive tactics, noting the devastating toll on civilians caught in the crossfire. Such operations disrupt daily life, forcing entire neighborhoods into lockdown and subjecting residents to intrusive searches and intimidation. The psychological impact of living under the constant threat of military operations has left the population traumatized and marginalized.

Critics argue that these operations serve a broader political agenda, reinforcing India’s occupation and tightening its grip on IIOJK through the militarization of civilian areas. Since the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A, the Indian government has intensified its military campaigns, further eroding the rights and freedoms of Kashmiris.

The ongoing operation in Jammu reflects the stark reality of life in the occupied region. With no resolution in sight, IIOJK continues to endure the heavy-handed policies of the Indian state, raising questions about the future of peace and stability in the region. The international community’s silence only emboldens these oppressive measures, leaving the people of IIOJK voiceless and vulnerable.
