URGENT APPEAL
It is important to bring to your attention another grave and extremely unfortunate situation that has arisen in Baluchistan. I wish to inform everyone that a fresh intensive military offensive has been launched in Kahan and Dera Bugti Districts of Baluchistan, by the tyrannical and oppressive Punjabi-Pakistani Army since the 6th of December 2007. The Western-backed Punjabi army has been sent into the town of Kahan where it is operating with full force against the poor, peaceful and innocent Baluch civilians, surpassing the ethics of conventional warfare and setting a new example of despicable and atrocious war crimes. The condemnation of these crimes is a duty of the civilized world.
