Pakistan has reiterated its call for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza, and for the provision of unhindered humanitarian assistance to alleviate the sufferings of the people of Gaza. In a statement today, the Foreign Office said Pakistan unequivocally condemns the latest Israeli attempt to dismantle the operations of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East. 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 Foreign 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, in accordance with the relevant UN General Assembly Resolution 302 (IV) of 1949. The international community also needs to step in to end Israel's genocidal campaign against the Palestinians in Gaza. The Foreign Office said sustainable peace in the region cannot be possible without the Palestinian people exercising their inalienable right to self-determination and the creation of a viable, secure, contiguous and sovereign State of Palestine on the basis of the pre-1967 borders with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
