Pakistan strongly condemns growing Israeli adventurism in the Middle East: Mumtaz Zahra Baloch

ISLAMABAD, Sep 29 (SABAH): Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, Foreign Office Spokesperson has said that Pakistan strongly condemned the growing Israeli adventurism in the Middle East and said that its unbridled attacks on civilian populations and disregard of international law have reached alarming levels.

“For the last several days, Israeli forces have engaged in unacceptable violation of the sovereignty of Lebanon, relentlessly targeting civilian population centers, and undermining its stability and security. We extend our deepest condolences to the families of the victims of Israeli aggression and the people of Lebanon,” Foreign Office Spokesperson said in a statement.

Yesterday’s reckless act of killing the Secretary General of Hezbollah in Lebanon constitutes a major escalation in an already volatile region.

“Pakistan continues to stand in solidarity with the people of Lebanon. We urge the United Nations Security Council to restrain Israel from its adventurism in the region and violations of international law; and restore peace in the Middle East,” it added.

Lebanon’s Hezbollah confirmed that its leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was killed in Israeli strikes that wipe out many Beirut buildings.

Notwithstanding the lost of its leader who led the resistance movement for almost three decades, the group vowed to continue its battle against Israel.

The military said that they carried out a precise airstrike while Hezbollah leadership was meeting at their headquarters in Dahiyeh, south of Beirut.
