Construction for extraction is not an infrastructure for people. It is for profit.

GB’s glaciers will continue to melt given our ever-warming climate. But while Glofs are inevitable, repeated human failures are not. The people of GB deserve more than sympathy after the fact; they deserve a government that takes their peril seriously.

"I'm not into politics" this sucks cause even the water you drink is political
Flooded nationalism
Wow ! Dawn just corrected itself from province Gilgit-Baltistan to Gilgit-Baltistan only. We are happy to educate mainlanders! #GilgitBaltistan
Corrupt governments, institutions, projects or individuals are always defended by their corrupt beneficiaries.
Basharat Issa retweeted
Federal ministers are lying Local government is ignorant UNDP GLOF project has been declared corrupt. Local volunteers are not well-equipped. People in #GilgitBaltistan are left at the mercy of their own during these devastating times.
Basharat Issa retweeted
This guy was the “early warning system” who informed ppl and saved 200 lives. Yet @sherryrehman credited a dysfunctional government system !
Basharat Issa retweeted
Disasters in Gilgit-Baltistan are always framed by the colonial state as destiny or God’s will. The truth is, these are man-made tragedies, born from decades of colonial policies that have torn apart the region’s ecology.
For your information @sherryrehman
Basharat Issa retweeted
@MustafaofGB @sherryrehman The area where this GLOF event occurred has no early warning system. Not even included among the 16 selected GLOF hit locations of Gilgit_Baltistan.
Another Company in the race to score points and credit while people have lost everything! Shame!

This is the truth, not what @sherryrehman is trying to score points for.

The destiny and future of the people of Gilgit-Baltistan shouldn't be the waiting time between death and the arrival of a green or a white helicopter. We deserve better! #GilgitBaltistan #ClimateEmergency #Flood

Hello @sherryrehman sahiba! locals from #GB & #Ghizer have confirmed that precious lives were saved by shepherds’ calls, & not by the so‑called ineffective “early warning systems.” Will you reconsider your remarks on their efficacy? Yes? No? Any guilt?

The colonisation and oppression of Gilgit-Baltistan is so deep that even our sufferings are utilised to credit the colonisers and their machinery that also when there was no early warning or a system in place. Lives were saved by a shepherd's call from the pastures.

This is a blatant lie!! So far all we know is that a shepherd's call from the pastures saved lives of people not any early warning system.

It seems glaciers in GBC are more a source of corruption than a source of water! #GilgitBaltistan #ClimateCrisis #GLOF
