After Mahira Khan, Hania Aamir speaks up on Sudan massacre

Raise your voice for humanity! Speak up for Sudan, she wrote

After Mahira Khan, Hania Aamir has taken to social media to speak up on the Sudan massacre.

Taking to Instagram, the Anaa star shared, "There’s a massacre happening in Sudan! People are being beaten up, raped, killed! A child was raped by multiple men in a mosque! 52 people killed! 700 injured! Dozens of bodies dumped into the Nile river! The military has shut down the internet and media coverage so we don’t get to see what’s happening so they can’t ask anyone for help!"

"Please yeh mat sochain ke yeh hamaray log nahi hain tou ham kya karain. Ham Sab insan hain! Buray waqt ka pata nahi hota. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, YouTube, TikTok! Jahan tak bata sakte ho batao! (Please don't think that these aren't our people. We all are humans. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, TikTok. Spread it as much as you can!)," added the Parwaaz Hai Junoon star.

She then went on to explain multiple ways in how the people of Pakistan can fund victims of the Sudan ordeal.

"There’s a page on Facebook called ‘Food and Medicine for Sudan’, you can donate by going to www.donate.unicefusa.org or www.savethechildren.org," added Hania.

"Go to www.change.org and sign the petition to urge the UN to look into the matter - donate at www.gofundme.com," she stated. "Raise your voice for humanity! Speak up for Sudan."

Earlier, Mahira also urged international news organisations to give the ordeal proper coverage. “Why is barely any international news channel giving this proper coverage?” she tweeted. “It’s heartbreaking to read about what’s happening in Sudan and so is the indifference towards it.”

More than 100 people were killed in Sudan following a crackdown on protesters on June 3, according to a committee of doctors, but officials have said the death toll is much lower.

As protesters entered their second week of sit in, reports of a massacre emerged. With people in Sudan being raped, beaten, killed and then thrown in the Nile River, many targeted international news organisations for not paying much heed to the issue.

In a unanimous statement, Unicef called for an immediate halt on the attacks against civilians and stressed the importance of upholding human rights.

Sudan has been led by a military council since it toppled president Omar al-Bashir on April 11 after months of nationwide protests against his autocratic rule.
