The Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) protest encampment in Quetta marked its 5,864th consecutive day on Friday, highlighting what families describe as the state’s systematic practice of enforced disappearances in Balochistan. This information was reported by The Balochistan Post.

According to ANI, this hunger strike camp, which has been ongoing for over 16 years, is one of the longest-lasting protests in South Asia. Family members of those forcibly disappeared continue to gather daily, seeking justice for thousands of Baloch men and youths reportedly taken by Pakistani security forces.

Meanwhile, on Friday, Khuda Bakhsh Baloch, Noor Muhammad Baloch, and Nazir Ahmad Baloch from Kalat visited the camp to show their support for the victims’ families.
