Previously, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had condemned Israel for violating Qatar’s sovereignty, saying the attack on Doha undermined efforts for peace in the Middle East.
While addressing the Arab-Islamic emergency summit in Doha, he stated that Pakistan strongly denounced the assault and stood in full solidarity with the Qatari leadership and people.
He noted that Israel had carried out the strike to sabotage mediation and peace efforts, even though Qatar was playing the role of a negotiator.
He had urged the creation of an Arab task force and called for immediate action against Israel, including an urgent ceasefire, the release of hostages and the freedom of Palestinians.
He had also stressed that the conflict could only be resolved through a two-state solution, with Palestine recognised as an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.
