Pakistan condemned Israel's strikes on Iran, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and the Foreign Office (FO) warning that such actions jeopardise regional peace and international law. The strikes follow escalating tensions, with Israel targeting military sites in Iran early Saturday in response to Tehran’s alleged recent attacks, including a large-scale ballistic missile assault on Israel on October 1. Approximately 200 ballistic missiles were reportedly launched, marking Iran’s second direct strike on Israel within six months.

PM Shehbaz expressed Pakistan’s disapproval of Israel’s actions on social media, saying, "Pakistan stands with Tehran and its other neighbours in pursuit of peace." He noted that Israeli aggression threatens stability in an already volatile region and violates international norms of sovereignty. Foreign Office urges United Nations Security Council to step in to prevent further conflict.
