East Turkistan, which was first subjected to Chinese invasions in the second half of the 18th century and was officially declared an autonomous region of China in 1955, is still under occupation.
Crimes against humanity are committed in Kashgar, Urumqi, Turpan and other provinces of historical East Turkistani territory. Usurped of their basic human rights, forced into migration and subjected to massacres, the East Turkistani people strive for liberation.
