Sammi Deen Baloch, a well-known activist, accuses state policies of targeting Baloch identity, not insurgency. She criticizes the use of terrorism narratives as a facade to legitimize violence against the Baloch community, labeling it a form of genocide and calling for urgent international attention.

In a stark critique of state policies, prominent activist Sammi Deen Baloch condemned what she describes as an assault on Baloch identity. Through the social media platform X, she asserted that the state perceives the Baloch community as an enemy rather than a nation, targeting individuals based on their identity rather than insurgent activities.

She highlighted the enforced disappearances of unarmed civilians as evidence of these disguised policies.

Raising alarms over what she termed as genocide, Baloch emphasized the indiscriminate targeting of Baloch men, women, and children, urging for international accountability. Her statements have intensified global calls for transparency and the protection of Baloch human rights.
