Members of Kashmiri diaspora protest across UK over military crackdown in PoJK | Video

Members of the Kashmiri diaspora staged protests across the United Kingdom over the weekend, condemning a military crackdown in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). The demonstrations drew participants in multiple cities, including London, Birmingham, and Manchester.

Protesters carried placards and chanted slogans against the Pakistani military's actions in the region. Videos shared on social media showed crowds gathering outside Pakistani diplomatic missions and other public spaces.

The protests were organized by diaspora groups who called for an end to what they described as human rights abuses in PoJK. Organizers said the crackdown involved arrests and use of force against local residents.

The demonstrations remained peaceful, with participants urging international attention to the situation. No arrests were reported during the protests.
