ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has strongly condemned recent statements by the Israeli “occupying power”, expressing its intention to forcibly displace Palestinians from their land.
Pakistan’s foreign ministry, in a statement on Saturday, said such actions are a clear violation of international law and a deliberate attempt to sabotage efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region.
“Forced displacement and continued expansion of illegal settlements reflect Israel’s disregard for international human rights and humanitarian law,” it said.

“We call upon the international community to play its role in addressing the humanitarian plight of the civilians and to hold Israel accountable,” said the foreign ministry.
It reaffirmed Pakistan’s unwavering support for the Palestinian people in their just struggle for self-determination and for a sovereign, independent Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
It is pertinent to mention that an Israeli air strike on Saturday destroyed a high-rise in Gaza City — the second in as many days — as health officials said at least 68 Palestinians were killed in the past 24 hours, bringing the total death toll since October 2023 to 64,368.
The Gaza Health Ministry said 362 people were wounded in the past day, including 23 killed and 143 injured while waiting for aid. It added that more than 162,000 have been wounded since Israel began its military campaign in October 2023 following the Hamas attack.
