PM Sharif Urges Immediate Aid for Palestinians Amid Rising Tensions
Those present characterized an environment where peace initiatives are intentionally sabotaged, which further raises tensions in the region following Ismail Haniyeh’s recent martyrdom in Tehran. Ongoing state-sponsored violence in Palestine is tragic for the Muslim Ummah; immediate humanitarian aid for Palestinians must be provided, demanded PM Sharif.
Pakistan decided to continue sending relief goods to Palestine and take effective steps to provide medical care for injured Palestinians. They will be brought here for treatment. Additionally, Pakistan will grant admission to Palestinian medical students into its medical colleges on a humanitarian basis.
The meeting decided that today, all of Pakistan would observe a day of mourning to show sympathy for the people of Palestine and condemn Israeli actions. Special prayers and a resolution in Parliament, supported by everyone, were led by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who valued all people equally.
Islam teaches us not only about justice. But also kindness towards our fellow creatures particularly those belonging to different communities than ourselves because they too belong same Creator Who loves them just as much as He loves us!
