Groups Mark 12th Anniversary of Yarkent Massacre, Call for Justice and Investigation
The East Turkistan Government in Exile (ETGE) and the Uyghur Human Rights Project (UHRP) marked the 12th anniversary of the 2014 Yarkent Massacre with demonstrations and calls for justice. ETGE alleged thousands of Uyghurs were killed during the incident, urging international action against China’s policies in Xinjiang, which China denies, citing anti-terrorism efforts. UHRP demanded disclosure of victims' fates, an independent investigation, and questioned China's narrative, highlighting ongoing concerns over human rights in the region.
