ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said Pakistan fully supports the creation of a free, independent, and viable Palestinian state based on the pre-June 1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.

In a post on X on Saturday, the Prime Minister said, “As our Palestinian brethren mark the 78th solemn anniversary of Nakba, we remember the enduring suffering and displacement of the Palestinians from their homeland since 1948.”

“On this solemn occasion, Pakistan reaffirms its unwavering solidarity with our Palestinian brothers and sisters. We demand an immediate end to the oppression, occupation, and violence being perpetrated by Israeli occupation authorities against Palestinians,” he added.
