Indian Troops Martyred Four Kashmiri Youth in Doda Amid Escalating Violence
Four Kashmiri youth have been martyred by Indian troops in the Doda district of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK). The incident occurred during a cordon and search operation in the Shivgarh-Assar area on Wednesday, according to Kashmir Media Service.
The operation, which continues to intensify, has also left a local resident injured due to indiscriminate firing by Indian forces. The area remains tense as the operation is ongoing, and the presence of Indian troops has been heavily reinforced.
This tragic incident follows closely on the heels of an attack in the same area that resulted in the death of an Indian army captain. The situation in the region remains volatile, with reports of frequent cordon and search operations leading to increased civilian casualties.
The martyrdom of these young men has further exacerbated the already dire human rights situation in IIOJK, where local residents continue to face brutal crackdowns by Indian forces. The international community has yet to intervene decisively, even as the calls for justice and the right to self-determination grow louder from the people of Kashmir.
As tensions continue to rise, the Kashmiri population mourns the loss of more innocent lives, highlighting the ongoing struggle for freedom and the severe repression they face under Indian occupation. The incident in Doda is a stark reminder of the violence that pervades the region, and the urgent need for a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Kashmir.
