Germany: FBM urges EU including Germany to stop supporting Pakistan

Hamburg: The Free Balochistan Movement organised a protest rally in Germany against the 23rd anniversary of Pakistan’s nuclear weapons in Balochistan on 28 May 2021 in Germany.

The Free Balochistan Movement said in a statement that Pakistan celebrates May 28 as Yom-e-Takbir (A day of Greatness) because on May 28, 1998, Pakistan targeted the Baloch territory to carry out its nefarious intentions and tested nuclear weapons.

The Baloch nation, however, remembers 28 May as one of the darkest days in the history of Balochistan and has been protesting against Pakistan’s nuclear test ever since.

Pakistan’s nuclear tests the Raskoh and Mount Qambran areas of Chaghai were contaminated with nuclear toxins which severely affected the agriculture sector of the region and caused environmental birth defects, livestock was also badly damaged, and diseases such as cancer spread throughout Balochistan.
