‘Government will call APC for Gaza’ – PM Shehbaz Meets with Bilawal and Hafiz Naeem

-

In a crucial meeting addressing the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif convened with prominent political leaders to discuss solidarity with the Palestinian people.

The leaders reached an agreement to express national support for the Palestinians by designating October 7 as a “Day of Solidarity with Palestine.”

On Friday, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif met with Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Hafiz Naeemur Rehman at the Prime Minister’s House to address the escalating situation in Gaza and Palestine.

Nationwide events, including gatherings and seminars, will be organized to protest Israeli aggression and show support for Palestinians enduring ongoing violence.

During the meeting, the leaders committed to raising their voices against the brutalities inflicted on Palestinians, particularly in Gaza, and announced an All Parties Conference (APC) to explore the crisis in greater depth.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will host the APC, and a committee has been formed to oversee the arrangements for both the solidarity day and the APC, including Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, Sherry Rehman, Khawaja Saad Rafique, and Nayyar Bukhari.

Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari welcomed the decision, condemning the “ongoing oppression of innocent Muslims in Gaza and Palestine.” He warned that “the war, which began with the brutal massacre in Gaza, now threatens to engulf the entire region, including Lebanon.” He urged the nation to unite against the “imperialist Zionist agenda.”

The meeting also recognized Jamaat-e-Islami’s strong support for Palestinians. Both former President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif are expected to participate in the upcoming APC.
