Pakistan on Wednesday strongly condemned the renewed attacks by Israeli occupying forces in Gaza, which have resulted in the deaths of numerous civilians.

In a statement, the Foreign Office said such actions were in blatant violation of the spirit of the peace agreement signed in Sharm El Sheikh, which was witnessed by leaders from the Muslim and Arab world, as well as representatives from the United States, Europe, and the United Nations.

Islamabad urged the international community to take urgent and effective measures to end Israeli violations, ensure implementation of the ceasefire, and guarantee the protection of Palestinian civilians.

Reaffirming its unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, Pakistan called for an immediate cessation of Israeli hostilities and reiterated its long-standing demand for the establishment of an independent, sovereign, and contiguous State of Palestine, based on pre-June 1967 borders, with Al Quds Al Sharif as its capital.
