Pakistan Condemns Drone Attack on UAE’s Nuclear Plant

Pakistan: Pakistan has strongly condemned the drone attack on the Barakah Nuclear Energy Plant in the United Arab Emirates. In a statement, Foreign Office Spokesperson Tahir Andrabi expressed Pakistan's full solidarity with the brotherly people and Government of the UAE.

According to Radio Pakistan, the spokesperson highlighted that any deliberate targeting of nuclear facilities is a grave violation of international law, including international humanitarian law, the United Nations Charter, and the fundamental principles of nuclear safety and security enshrined in the Statute and resolutions of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

He emphasized that nuclear installations must never be targeted under any circumstances. Such actions carry potentially catastrophic and irreversible consequences for human life, the environment, and both regional and global peace and security.

Tahir Andrabi underscored that the inviolability of civilian nuclear infrastructure is a well-established international norm and must be upheld without exception. He called upon all parties to exercise maximum restraint, fulfill their obligations under international law and international humanitarian law, and avoid any actions that could further escalate tensions with consequences extending far beyond the region.

The spokesperson reiterated that dialogue and diplomacy, consistent with the principles and purposes of the United Nations Charter, remain the only viable path toward lasting peace, stability, and de-escalation in the region.
