BBC记者近日进入巴基斯坦控制的克什米尔地区城市拉瓦尔科特,报道该地区因抗议引发的暴力局面。[1]过去两个月内,联合人民行动委员会(JAAC)发起的抗议活动与安全部队之间的冲突已造成数十人丧生。[1]医疗工作者表示,自7月27日以来,诊所收治了50至60名重伤患者,其中15至20人为枪伤。[1]伤亡者多为15至16岁至32至35岁的年轻人。[1]
抗议者针对电力价格、教育和医疗等公共服务问题与当局发生暴力对抗。[1]JAAC曾于去年10月与巴基斯坦政府签署协议,但称该协议未被执行。[1]当局表示JAAC在6月被禁,并被标记为外资支持的恐怖组织。[1]目前该地区互联网已被切断,道路被封锁或由警卫把守。[1]BBC是首家获准进入拉瓦尔科特报道的媒体机构。[1]该地区约有450万人口,目前正在进行选举。[1]
BBC journalists have gained rare access to Rawalpindi in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, where escalating confrontations between security forces and protesters have claimed dozens of lives over the past two months.[1] The conflict centers on demonstrations organized by the Joint Action Committee (JAAC) over grievances including electricity prices, education, and healthcare services.[1]
Medical professionals report that clinics have treated between 50 and 60 severely wounded patients since July 27, with 15 to 20 sustaining gunshot injuries.[1] The casualties predominantly consist of young people aged between 15 and 32 years old.[1] BBC is the first international media organization permitted to enter the city and document the unfolding crisis.[1]
The region, home to approximately 4.5 million people currently undergoing electoral processes, has become increasingly isolated.[1] Internet connectivity has been severed and roads are either blocked or guarded by security personnel.[1] The JAAC signed an agreement with the Pakistani government in October of last year but has alleged that the accord remains unimplemented.[1] Authorities have characterized JAAC as a banned organization since June, designating it as a terror group with foreign backing.[1]
