The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) has hailed Pakistan’s victory in Marka-e-Haq, describing the event as a defining chapter in the nation’s history and a significant source of encouragement for both Pakistanis and Kashmiris.
Military Success and International Standing
In a statement issued in Srinagar, APHC Spokesman Advocate Abdul Rashid Minhas noted that between April 22 and May 10, 2025, the armed forces of Pakistan demonstrated determination, courage, and exceptional professionalism. According to the Kashmir Media Service, the APHC asserts that these forces inflicted a crushing defeat on the enemy, an achievement that has enhanced the international stature of Pakistan.
The APHC further stated that the success in Marka-e-Haq serves as proof that Pakistan cannot be subdued or intimidated by any aggressor.
Impact on the Kashmiri Struggle
The spokesman emphasized that this historic achievement has had a direct impact on the morale of Kashmiris resisting Indian occupation, infusing the freedom struggle with renewed determination and fresh spirit. He maintained that the aspirations of Kashmiris will ultimately be fulfilled and that their sacrifices will not be in vain.
The APHC highlighted that Kashmiris and Pakistanis are linked by civilizational, cultural, and religious ties that are unbreakable by any force.
Regional Implications and Outlook
According to the APHC, the confrontation in May 2025 underscored a critical geopolitical reality: the unresolved Kashmir dispute remains the root cause of tensions between India and Pakistan.
Given these developments, the renewed spirit within the freedom struggle may lead to increased persistence in their efforts. As long as the Kashmir dispute is viewed as the primary driver of regional instability, tensions between Pakistan and India could remain elevated.
