The day before, Pakistan had dispatched the initial shipment of relief aid for the oppressed Palestinian population. This aid includes one thousand winter tents, four thousand blankets, and three tons of medicines, with its delivery to Palestine being facilitated through Egypt.
The relief assistance, organized by the Pakistan Army and the National Disaster Management Authority, will offer immediate relief to those affected in Gaza.
The Foreign Office Spokesperson, Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, emphasized Pakistan’s deep concern for the situation of its Palestinian counterparts in Gaza. She strongly condemned Israeli aggression, the blockade, and the recent attack on a Gaza hospital, asserting that Israel’s actions violate international humanitarian and human rights laws. Deliberate attacks on civilian targets constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity. Pakistan called for an immediate ceasefire, an end to the siege of Gaza, and the establishment of humanitarian corridors for unrestricted relief supplies during the weekly press briefing.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported a death toll of 3,785 in the Gaza Strip, including at least 1,524 children, with over 12,000 individuals sustaining injuries.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
