The Baloch National Movement (BNM) will organise protests, peaceful marches, and awareness campaigns in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and South Korea against the impacts of the illegal nuclear tests conducted by Pakistan in occupied Balochistan 28 years ago.
On 28 May 1998, the Pakistani state carried out five simultaneous underground nuclear tests in the Raskoh mountains of Chaghi, Balochistan, without giving any prior warning to the local Baloch population. Even after 28 years, the devastating effects of these nuclear tests continue to impact the lives, health, and environment of the people of Balochistan.
The BNM UK Chapter will organise awareness campaigns on 26 May 2026 at Trafalgar Square London, King’s Parade, Cambridge City, Cambridge City and Piccadilly Gardens Manchester to mark 28 May 1998, Youm-e-Asrokh.
The Netherlands Chapter will organise a rally on 28 May 2026 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM in Amsterdam. The rally will begin at Amsterdam Centraal and proceed towards Dam Square. The purpose of the rally is to raise awareness about the ongoing suffering and challenges faced by the people affected by Pakistan’s nuclear tests in occupied Balochistan.
The South Korea Chapter will organise a protest demonstration and peaceful march in Busan on 28 May 2026 from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM at City Spot, Nampo-dong.
We appeal to all people to join us in raising their voices for justice, spreading awareness, and expressing solidarity with the victims who continue to suffer from the consequences of these nuclear tests.
