Pakistan urges UNSC to take urgent measures for peace in Gaza

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has urged United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to take urgent measures for peace in Gaza, ARY News reported.

The foreign office spokesperson Mumtaz Zehra Baloch said Pakistan is deeply concerned by the situation in Gaza.

She urged the international community to come forward and provide aid for the people in Gaza. The FO spokesperson said that peace in the Middle East is important for world peace.

Mumtaz Zehra said that Pakistan has signed an agreement with GCC for free trade and several countries including UAE are interested in investing in Pakistan.

Fighting raged in Gaza after Hamas on October 7 launched a surprise attack on Israel, in which around 1,200 people were killed.

Following the attacks, Israel launched a relentless bombing campaign and ground offensive in Gaza Strip. According to health ministry, Israel’s ruthless bombing has killed more than 13,300 people, thousands of them children.

“The collective punishment of Palestinian civilians through the unlawful use of force by Israel is a war crime. The deliberate denial of medicine, fuel, food and water to the residents of Gaza is tantamount to genocide,” said South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.

On Tuesday, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh said a truce agreement with Israel was in sight, with mediator Qatar adding negotiations to free hostages seized by the Palestinian Islamist group were at their “closest point” to a deal.

Leaders and representatives of BRICS said a long-term diplomatic solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was needed to ensure peace, with Chinese President Xi Jinping  calling for an “international peace conference” to achieve that goal.

“There can be no sustainable peace and security in the Middle East without a just solution to the question of Palestine,” Xi said, speaking through an interpreter.

Pakistan floods: South Asia’s monsoon explained

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year. It occurs when summer heat warms the landmass of the subcontinent, causing the air to rise and sucking in cooler Indian Ocean winds which then produce enormous volumes of rain. Why it is important? The monsoon is vital for agriculture and therefore for the livelihoods of millions of farmers and for food security in the poor region of around two billion people. But it brings destruction every ye...
