ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Monday condemned latest drone strike that resulted in a number of casualties in the Mana area of North Waziristan Agency on May 16.
Foreign Office Spokesman Qazi Khalilullah in a statement issued here said, "We condemn such strikes which are a clear violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity."
He said these strikes generate distrust among the local populace at a time when Operation Zarb-e-Azb is moving ahead decisively and the focus of the Government is shifting towards rehabilitation of the civilian population.
"We reiterate our call for a cessation of such strikes," said the Spokesman in the statement.
