The Hurriyat forum in a statement issued in Srinagar in connection with the Indian Independence Day being observed by Kashmiris across the globe as Black Day, said the deployment of nine hundred thousand Indian troops in IIOJK poses a serious threat to regional peace and security.

It said incessant human rights abuses including killing, extrajudicial executions, harassment, torture and custodial disappearances of innocent Kashmiris under the garb of cordon and search operations, crackdowns, amid strict restrictions, have become a routine matter in IIOJK. The Hurriyat forum called for immediate global Intervention to stop genocide of Kashmiris in the occupied territory.
