Pakistan has reaffirmed its support for a sovereign, independent State of Palestine based on pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital, in line with UN resolutions and international law.
This was stated by Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad while addressing the Security Council on ongoing situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
Ambassador Asim Iftikhar said the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory remains fragile. He said two years of devastating conflict have exacted an unbearable toll, and fragile gains since the October 2025 ceasefire now hang in balance.
He said a delicate regional situation consumes our focus, but attention to the West Bank and Gaza must not get off the radar.
