Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Munir Akram has “strongly condemned” the resumption of Israeli strikes on Gaza and the “indiscriminate killing of Palestinian civilians through bombardments, airstrikes, and artillery fire”, according to state media Radio Pakistan.

During the UN Security Council briefing on the Middle East, he urged the international community to not ignore the “suffering of the Palestinian people”, stressing that justice and human rights cannot be applied selectively.

He also highlighted the significance of the upcoming conference by France and Saudi Arabia, which is crucial to advance the peaceful resolution of the Palestinian issue and implement the two-state solution.
