The Hurriyat (M) said that Kashmir dispute has historical background and context which can’t be ignored and dealing with it militarily and adopting iron-fist policy that includes killings, and torture is not going to break the resolve of the people of Kashmir but rather will further strengthen their commitment towards the goal of freedom from the forcible control as we witness

Hurriyat (M) welcomed the statement of UN General Secretary Antonio Guterres wherein he has expressed serious concern over the killing of innocent civilians in Palestine and Kashmir and urging nations to resolve issues amicably.
