ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that he as premier and the Pakistani nation are standing with the people of Palestine and Gaza.
In a tweet uploaded on Wednesday, Imran Khan shared a quote of world-renowned media scholar, linguistic and dissident Noam Chomsky, “You take my water, burn my olive trees, destroy my house, take my job, steal my land, imprison my father, kill my mother, bombard my country, starve us all, humiliate us all but I am to blame: I shot a rocket back.”
Earlier, the Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) strongly condemned the airstrikes by Israel on Gaza that resulted in deaths and injuries to so many innocent Palestinians, including children. In a latest, Palestinian death toll reached at 36 including 10 children after Israel military continued bombing on Gaza strip including Tower residential building.
Palestinian political and nationalist organization Hamas says it has launched 200 rockets on Israel in response to the strikes on tower building in Gaza. International commentators say it is the most intense airstrikes in Gaza since the bombardment in 2014.
According to Aljazeera, the rocket fire came after Hamas, which rules Gaza, issued an ultimatum demanding Israel stand down its security forces from the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem after days of violence against Palestinians.
Israeli police stormed the compound on Monday for a third consecutive day, firing rubber-coated steel rounds, stun grenades and tear gas at Palestinian worshippers inside the mosque in the final days of the holy month of Ramazan.
