In the past week, repression in Indian occupied Kashmir has increased. Kashmir has been lockdown. Army has take over schools, colleges, businesses and offices.
There is an internet blockade and communication blackout. Preceding to this situation political leaders, activists and even journalists have been detained. The troops are patrolling on the streets and people continue to be locked in their homes after a curfew was declared.
Pakistani artists have raised their voice against bleeding in Kashmir. Celebrities like Mahira Khan, Kubra Khan, Shaan Shahid, Mehwish Hayat, Hareem Farooq, Feroze Khan and many others have twitted about this whole scenario.
Have we conveniently blocked what we don’t want to address? This is beyond lines drawn on sand, it’s about innocent lives being lost! Heaven is burning and we silently weep. #Istandwithkashmir #kashmirbleeds

The use of cluster bombs in Kashmir is in clear violation of the Geneva Convention. There is no justification for it whatsoever. These are simple war crimes – the world has to wake up and put a stop to these atrocities NOW! #SaveKashmirSOS #KashmirBleeds

1/2 Kashmir is the land of Kashmiris , is it too difficult to understand? The world should speak up , it is about time! Kashmiris have suffered a lot already. #StandwithKashmir #SaveLivesInKashmir#IStandWithKashmir

2/2 This decision today by so called largest democracy of the world of declaring Kashmiris as minorities on their own land is ridiculous and unacceptable on so many levels . #StandwithKashmir #SaveLivesInKashmir #IStandWithKashmir

There are only people and there is only humanity. Flags, borders, power are a game for the elites and where ordinary people die. Politicians and their children don’t go to war. We must all take a stand against this crime against humanity. It is time to stand with #Kashmir.

Occupying #Kashmir with a force of One Million, putting the entire state under curfew like situation and invoking #Article370 clearly show that Kashmir is being annexed forcefully.
Meanwhile, the @UN 's role is a reminder of that of the League of Nations.#StandwithKashmir— VEENA MALIK (@iVeenaKhan) August 5, 2019
