Attack on Masjid al-Aqsa condemned

PMML terms attack by Israeli forces 'an act of terrorism' and 'conspiracy against world peace'

LAHORE:

The Pakistan Markazi Muslim League (PMML) strongly condemned the torture of worshippers and the disrespect of the Masjid al-Aqsa by Israeli security forces.

In a joint statement issued on Saturday, PMML President Khalid Masood Sindhu and General Secretary Chaudhry Muhammad Azam denounced the attack on innocent unarmed Palestinians as an act of terrorism, further stating that the attack on the mosque during the holy month of Ramazan was a conspiracy against world peace.

They further condemned the Israeli forces hurting the sentiments of Muslims by attacking the first Qibla of Islam.

They declared Israel an illegal terrorist state, further stating that this was also declared by founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

“It is unfortunate that the United Nations and other international institutions have been unable to resolve the issue of Palestine after 75 years,” they said, adding that Palestinians were neither ethically nor politically supported like they deserve.

The PMML leaders said that all Muslim states should form a common strategy against Israel and a case should be contested in the International Court of Justice.
