Pakistan has issued a firm condemnation of Israel’s recent military strikes against the Islamic Republic of Iran, labelling them as unjustified, illegitimate, and a blatant breach of international law and the United Nations Charter.
In an official statement, Pakistan denounced the Israeli aggression as a direct violation of Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, underscoring that such actions contradict the core principles of the UN Charter.
Citing Article 51, Pakistan affirmed Iran’s inherent right to self-defense under international law.
Islamabad expressed full solidarity with the Iranian people, warning that the escalation poses a serious threat to regional peace and global stability.
The statement described the strikes as grave provocations that endanger the broader Middle East and demand urgent international intervention.
“I condemn, in the strongest possible terms, today's unprovoked attack on Iran by Israel,” Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif stated on X.
“I convey my deepest sympathies to the Iranian people on the loss of lives in this attack. This grave and highly irresponsible act is deeply alarming and risks further de-stabilising an already volatile region.”
Pakistan also called on international bodies to hold the aggressor accountable, urging a collective effort to restore calm and uphold the rule of law.
