RAWALPINDI (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Pakistan’s top army generals on Friday expressed “complete solidarity” with the Palestinian people and condemned Israel’s “war crimes” in Gaza during a corps commanders’ meeting held at the General Headquarters in Rawalpindi, the military’s media wing said.
The war in Gaza, which began in October 2023, has continued despite repeated international calls for a ceasefire. The Palestinian death toll has surpassed 50,000 in the conflict, with women and children accounting for a significant portion of the casualties.
Pakistan, which does not recognize Israel, has consistently advocated for an independent Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders. It has also raised concern over the Gaza war at global forums, including the United Nations Security Council, and demanded a ceasefire and accountability for Israeli actions.
“The forum expressed complete solidarity with the people of Palestine and condemned serious human rights violations and war crimes being perpetrated in Gaza,” the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement released after the 268th Corps Commanders’ Conference.
“The forum also reiterated unequivocal diplomatic, political and moral support to the people of Palestine,” it added.
