Pakistan has reiterated its call for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza, and for the provision of unhindered humanitarian assistance to alleviate the suffering of the people of Gaza.

In a statement, the Foreign Office spokesperson said Pakistan unequivocally condemns the latest Israeli attempt to dismantle the operations of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees.

It said this latest step is yet another Israeli violation of international law and the UN Charter. Preventing UNRWA from carrying out its vital tasks is a manifestation of Israel’s systematic campaign to deny the much needed humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people.

The spokesperson Office called upon the international community, in particular the United Nations Security Council, to hold Israel accountable for its actions and ensure the unimpeded operations of UNRWA.

The international community also needs to step in to end Israel’s genocidal campaign against the Palestinians in Gaza.
