ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has demanded immediate action from international community on the recent report of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) regarding the forced eviction of Palestinians from their land and child malnutrition.
In a statement, the prime minister said that the latest UN report is fresh evidence of the Israeli genocide against the oppressed Palestinians.
The prime minister said that the UN report testifies that there is not a single day in which innocent Palestinian blood is not shed. It says that the Palestinian children are the biggest target of Israel.
وزیراعظم محمد شہباز شریف کا فلسطینیوں کی اپنی سرزمین سے جبری بے دخلی اور بچوں کی غذائی قلت سے متعلق انسانی امور پر اقوام متحدہ کے ادارے (او سی ایچ اے) کی تازہ رپورٹ پر عالمی برادری کے فوری اقدامات کا مطالبہ

The prime minister said that the forced eviction of 250,000 Palestinians from their homes in the month of August is a challenge to international institutions, international conscience and international law. He said that the pace of Israeli oppression can be gauged from the unjust eviction of 146 Palestinians from their homes in just two days.
Shahbaz Sharif said that the report of the United Nations agency confirms that on the one hand, the genocide of Palestinians with deadly weapons is continuing while on the other hand, hunger is being used as a weapon. Only one percent of children in northern Gaza and six percent in southern Gaza are receiving food, he added.
Expressing serious concerns over the massacre of Palestinian people, the prime minister said that reports of international organizations are a serious indictment against Israel. He said the murderers of humanity should be punished and the oppressed be protected.
The prime minister expressed Pakistan’s commitment to speed up delivery of food to Palestinians, especially children.
