PoK Election Clashes Intensify as JAAC Pushes Muzaffarabad March

Tensions continued in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir on Thursday as clashes went on between security forces and the banned Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) in the Rawalkot region, amid ongoing regional elections in the area. The unrest has claimed several lives this week. The JAAC, a collective of activists and politicians, has been pushing for a march towards Muzaffarabad to press Islamabad to accept their demands. The security forces have been trying to maintain order and prevent the march from taking place. The situation remains tense, with both sides engaging in a standoff.
