Former President and President of the Pakistan Peoples Party Parliamentarians (PPPP), Asif Ali Zardari, has expressed solidarity with the Palestinian people. In a message here on Sunday, he said that the sympathies of the people of Pakistan and prayers are with their Palestinian brethren. He said that the Palestinian people have been facing oppression and brutality for a long time. He urged the international community and international mediators to raise their voices in support of the Palestinian cause.
It was worth mentioned here that conflict’s bloodiest escalation in decades saw Hamas carry out a massive rocket barrage and ground, air and sea offensive on Saturday that Israel’s army said had killed more than 200 Israelis and wounded 1,000, while soldiers and civilians were taken hostage.Gaza officials said intense Israeli air strikes on the coastal enclave had brought the Palestinian death toll to at least 256, with nearly 1,788 wounded.—INP
