The National Assembly of Pakistan unanimously adopted a resolution condemning the brutality in Gaza and the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh on August 2, 2024. The resolution described Haniyeh’s killing as a “deliberate conspiracy to sabotage efforts to stop the ongoing Gaza conflict.” It noted that Haniyeh’s death in Tehran exacerbated the grief and was seen as an attempt to hinder efforts to end the oppression and brutality against Palestinians and establish peace in the region.
The resolution highlighted that the atrocities by Israel on Palestinians have escalated, resulting in the loss of over 40,000 innocent lives, including women and children. It called for an immediate and comprehensive ceasefire, the provision of sustainable and unhindered humanitarian assistance to Palestinians, and the immediate withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces from Gaza. The resolution also expressed complete solidarity with Palestinians, asserting that the Israeli leadership aims to expel the Palestinian population from their homeland.
