Israeli atrocities against people of Gaza is not acceptable, says Pakistani premier

Islam Times - Pakistan’s Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif slammed Israel for the atrocities it has committed against the people of Gaza. He noted, “Israel commits war crimes by its aggressive assaults on civilians in Palestine, especially in Gaza.”

The Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said that Israel’s aggressive acts against unarmed civilians are a human rights violation, adding that Israel continuously used force on unarmed civilians should be immediately stopped.

Moreover, he strongly deplored the bombing of civilian populated areas, explaining that such acts were contrary to international law, something Israel has never seemed to be aware of or care about.

The statement noted that Israel’s cruelty on Palestinians is unacceptable and condemnable on all grounds.

The Prime Minister emphasized that the people of Pakistan are in complete support and solidarity with the people of Gaza. He reiterated his support for the formation of an independent Palestinian state.

Pakistan’s Foreign Office spokeswoman Tasneem Aslam also issued a statement against the Israeli aggression.

She condemned the Israeli aggression on Gaza. She said, “Pakistan supports the international community’s efforts in bringing about a cessation of unilateral Israeli strikes killing Palestinians, including women and children … Pakistan is deeply concerned over the recent escalation of violence and loss of lives in Gaza and has consistently supported a Palestinian state on the basis of pre-1967 borders, with Al Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.”
