Islamabad, Oct 30 (UNI) Pakistan strongly condemned the latest Israeli attempt to dismantle the operations of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), said a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Tuesday evening.
The ministry said that the latest step is yet another violation of international law and the UN Charter by Israel.
"Preventing UNRWA from carrying out its vital tasks is a manifestation of Israel's systematic campaign to deny the much-needed humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people," added the ministry. According to the ministry, Pakistan urged the international community, particularly the United Nations Security Council, to hold Israel accountable and to protect UNRWA's work under UN General Assembly Resolution 302 (IV) of 1949.
