In response to the tragic massacre of Shia Muslims in Parachinar, Pakistan, the Shia Rights Watch Organization, affiliated with the Global Foundation of Grand Ayatollah Sayed Sadiq Hussaini Shirazi, issued a statement condemning the atrocity. The statement reads:

"The Shia Rights Watch Organization strongly condemns the horrific killing of Shia civilians in Pakistan on 21/11/2024 and holds Pakistani authorities legally accountable for this heinous crime. Verified reports indicate that 103 civilians were killed or injured in an armed assault by an unidentified extremist group. The attack targeted several buses carrying dozens of civilians traveling to their residential area in Parachinar, northwest Pakistan. Machine gunfire resulted in over 40 fatalities and more than 60 injuries. This atrocity is part of an ongoing series of terrorist attacks targeting Shia Muslims in Pakistan amidst negligence and apathy from the country’s security authorities."
