Pakistan to observe Black Day on July 19 to express solidarity with Kashmir

Addressing the meeting, PM Sharif said Pakistan will continue to extend moral, political and diplomatic support for Kashmiris in their just struggle for the right to self-determination.

 “Indian brutalities will give impetus to the freedom struggle. Seven hundred thousand Indian soldiers deployed in Occupied Kashmir cannot suppress the struggle of Kashmiris,” he said.

The Prime Minister said that those who were killed by the India forces were ‘soldiers’ of the Kashmir independence movement.
