This happened today: an Indian occupying soldier is frisking a man in the Sopore area of north Kashmir. Frisking him for what? Do they think he’s hiding a machine gun in his armpits? Or is this just part of the daily harassments & humiliations of military occupation?

This also happened today: Indian troops shot unarmed 17-year-old Shakir Ahmad Mir to death in the Shopian district during one of their hunt to kill operations.

May young Shakir Rest In Peace. End the occupation. Self-determination for Kashmir.
