FBM to Organise Martyrs’ Day Gatherings Across Europe and Balochistan
LONDON: As in previous years, the Baloch nation will observe November 13 as Baloch Martyrs’ Day, paying tribute to those who sacrificed their lives for the freedom, dignity and national independence of Balochistan.
To mark the occasion, the Free Balochistan Movement (FBM) has announced a series of commemorative gatherings in Balochistan and across Europe. In a statement to the media, the pro-freedom political party said it would hold events in Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
The FBM’s Finland chapter will host a seminar in Helsinki on November 12, while its UK chapter will organise a conference in London on November 13. These events will honour Baloch political activists, national leaders, freedom fighters and civilians who lost their lives in the struggle for national freedom in Pakistani- and Iranian-occupied Balochistan.
The gatherings will also highlight the ongoing human rights situation in Balochistan and provide an opportunity to reaffirm international solidarity with the Baloch people.
According to the FBM, Baloch Martyrs’ Day is an important occasion to preserve the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their homeland and to draw greater international attention to the Baloch national question.
The Free Balochistan Movement has invited members of the Baloch community, human rights advocates, political activists, supporters, and all freedom-loving people to attend seminars in Finland and London, as well as other commemorative gatherings, to honour the sacrifices of Baloch martyrs.
“The martyrs may not be among us, but their sacrifices remain etched in the collective memory of the Baloch nation and their legacy continues to inspire the struggle for freedom, justice and national dignity,” the FBM statement concluded.
