Pakistan Condemns Israeli Aggression on Iran at UN Security Council
Pakistan Calls It Open Act of State Terrorism and Threat to Global Peace
At an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) convened in response to Israel’s recent air strikes on Iranian military and nuclear facilities, Pakistan took a clear and firm stance condemning the Israeli attacks as blatant aggression and a grave threat to regional and global peace.
Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad, described Israel’s actions as unjustified, illegitimate, and a violation of international law, urging the Security Council to immediately halt the aggression and hold Israel accountable for its actions during an emergency session convened on Friday.
Ambassador Ahmad emphasized that Iran has the sovereign right to self-defence under Article 51 of the UN Charter and highlighted that Israel’s repeated military actions in Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and now Iran reflect a dangerous pattern of unilateral militarism that destabilizes the entire region.
He warned that if Israel’s aggression is not checked today, the consequences will be borne by all humanity in the future.
