AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Pakistan Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch has said that Pakistan condemns in the strongest terms the Israeli aggression against Syria and its illegal occupation of Syrian territory.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said that this attack on Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity is a grave violation of international law. Israel’s provocative actions are a dangerous development in an already unstable region. The Foreign Office Spokesperson said that Israel continues to blatantly violate international law and violate UN Security Council resolutions and Pakistan expresses its full support for Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch further said that Pakistan rejects Israel’s acquisition of territory through force, we reiterate our support for UN Security Council Resolution 497, which declares Israel’s annexation of the Golan Heights “null and void and without international legal effect.” We urge the international community, including the United Nations Security Council, to take immediate and decisive steps to end Israeli exceptionalism, its repeated violations of international law, and its aggression against countries in the region.
She said that Pakistan also reiterates that peace in the Middle East cannot be achieved without Israel’s complete withdrawal from occupied Palestine and other occupied territories, including the Syrian Golan.
