Islamabad, Pakistan: “Israel is involved in efforts to create unrest in Pakistan, not through only the Afghan border but also by actively seeking to foment instability in Azad Kashmir”, said official sources in Islamabad.
According to official sources, the X account of the Joint Action Committee (JAAC), which claims to advocate for the rights of the people of Azad Kashmir, is being operated from Israel and is actively inciting unrest among the public”.
This is not merely a claim made by official circles as sources have provided data indicating that the account is being operated from Israel, leaving little room for doubt.
“These are classic tactics of the enemy: using anonymous social media accounts to spread chaos and incite unrest on behalf of India and Israel. Their sole objective is to sow discord and division. It is very clear and evident,” a government official told DND News Agency while sharing the data.
JK-JAAC has long been accused of creating law-and-order problems in Azad Kashmir. During previous protest campaigns, it allegedly resorted to violence and was linked to the killing of security personnel. Once again, the group, whose past remains controversial, is attempting to bring Azad Kashmir into the international spotlight through a protest that could potentially turn violent. In such a situation, the state may be compelled to act to protect public property, increasing the likelihood of clashes. Such incidents could then be exploited by certain Indian-backed international media outlets.
Viewed within the broader geopolitical context, several questions remain regarding the role of JK-JAAC in creating unrest in Azad Kashmir. India’s information warfare apparatus is now actively exploiting both the internal situation in Azad Kashmir and the ban on JK-JAAC. The narrative promoted by the Indian state and state-linked media remains largely consistent: that the Gilgit-Baltistan elections are illegitimate, that Gilgit-Baltistan and Kashmir are inseparable parts of India, and that Pakistan should vacate these territories. India has formally protested the Gilgit-Baltistan elections and is using diplomatic channels to build a legal and political case for future action.
