Pakistan’s political and military leadership publicly aligned itself with Iran on Saturday after Israel carried out strikes inside the Islamic Republic. Islamabad condemned the attacks as “unprovoked aggression” and pledged to support Tehran “by all means,” warning that regional stability is at risk if the assaults continue. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif told Pakistan’s National Assembly that Islamabad had shared intelligence with Tehran several days before the strikes, alerting Iranian authorities to threats against their nuclear facilities. He urged Muslim countries to sever ties with Israel and warned that failure to unite would leave the wider Islamic world vulnerable to similar attacks. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif reinforced the message in a telephone conversation with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, assuring him of Pakistan’s “unwavering support” and asserting Iran’s right to self-defence under the UN Charter. Sharif also consulted with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, with both leaders calling the Israeli action a blatant violation of international law and demanding a coordinated international response. At the United Nations Security Council, Pakistan’s envoy echoed the government’s stance, defending Iran’s right to respond to external aggression and urging the Council to address what Islamabad described as Israel’s repeated provocations. The string of statements marks Pakistan’s most forceful diplomatic backing of Iran in years and signals a potential realignment of regional alliances in the aftermath of the Israeli strikes.
