  • The 1988 Gilgit massacre refers to the state-sponsored mass killing of Shia civilians in the Gilgit District of Pakistan who revolted against military dictator Zia-ul-Haq's Sunni Islamist regime, responsible for vehement persecution of religious minorities as part of its Islamization program. The massacre was preceded by anti-Shia riots in early May 1988, which were caused by a dispute over the sighting of the moon for Eid al-Fitr after Ramadan between Shia Muslims and Sunni Muslims. Local Sunnis, who were still fasting for Ramadan, had attacked the local Shias who had announced their commencement of Eid celebrations in Gilgit City, leading to violent clashes between the two sects.In response to the riots and revolt against Zia-ul-Haq's regime, the Pakistan Army led an armed group of local Sunni tribals from Chilas, accompanied by Osama bin Laden-led Sunni militants from Afghanistan as well as Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province into Gilgit City and adjoining areas in order to suppress the revolt. It is estimated that anywhere between 150 and 900 Shia Muslims were killed in the resulting massacre and violence, in which entire villages were also burnt down. The massacre also saw the mass rape of hundreds of Shia Muslim women by Sunni tribesmen. (en)
  • Il massacro di Gilgit del 1988 è stato un pogrom, lanciato dal governo militare di Zia ul Haq per reprimere il movimento degli sciiti contro l'iniquità e discriminazione, nel quale il lashkar formato di militanti estremisti del Chilas, del Kohistan, di Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, delle aree tribali di amministrazione federale e dei talebani provenienti dall'Afghanistan invase il distretto di Gilgit.

  • O massacre em Gilgit em 1988 refere-se ao assassinato em massa patrocinado pelo Estado e estupro de civis xiitas do que se revoltaram contra o regime islâmico sunita do ditador militar Zia-ul-Haq, responsável pela perseguição veemente às minorias religiosas como parte de seu programa de islamização. O massacre foi precedido por tumultos anti-xiitas no início de maio de 1988, que foram causados por uma disputa sobre a observação da lua para o Eid al-Fitr após o Ramadã entre os muçulmanos xiitas e os sunitas. Os sunitas locais, que ainda estavam jejuando pelo Ramadã, atacaram os xiitas locais que anunciaram o início das celebrações do Eid na cidade de Gilgit, levando a violentos confrontos entre as duas seitas. Em resposta aos motins e a revolta contra o regime de Zia-ul-Haq, o Exército do Paquistão liderou um grupo armado de tribais sunitas locais de Chilas, acompanhados por militantes sunitas liderados por Osama bin Laden do Afeganistão, bem como da Província da Fronteira Noroeste do Paquistão até a cidade de Gilgit e áreas adjacentes a fim de reprimir a revolta. Estima-se que algo entre 150 e 900 muçulmanos xiitas foram mortos no massacre e na violência resultantes, nos quais aldeias inteiras também foram incendiadas. O massacre também resultou no estupro em massa de centenas de mulheres muçulmanas xiitas por tribos sunitas. (pt)
