Pakistan has strongly condemned and rejected recent statements made by Israel alluding to the creation of so-called “Greater Israel”, the Foreign Office has said in a statement.

“Pakistan strongly condemns and rejects recent statements made by the Israeli Occupying power, alluding to the creation of so-called ‘Greater Israel’, and its designs aimed at the forcible displacement of Palestinians from Gaza,” the statement read.

It added that Pakistan called on the international community to outrightly reject such provocative notions that constitute a flagrant violation of international law, principles of the UN Charter, as well as the relevant United Nations resolutions.

“Such statements reflect the occupying power’s intention to entrench its illegal occupation, as well as its complete contempt for all international efforts aimed at achieving lasting peace and stability in the region,” the FO said.

Adding that the international community must take immediate and tangible measures to prevent the occupying power from further destabilising the region, and to end its ongoing crimes and atrocities against the Palestinians.
