Pakistan Condemns Us-Israel Attacks On Iran, Urges Diplomacy

On February 28, 2026, Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar condemned the 'unwarranted attacks' against Iran by Israel and the United States, calling for an immediate halt to the escalating military confrontation in the region. This condemnation followed a series of strikes by Israel and the US on Iranian targets, which prompted Iran to retaliate with missile strikes on regional bases, raising concerns of a broader conflict. Dar emphasized the need for 'urgent resumption of diplomacy to achieve a peaceful, negotiated resolution to the crisis,' according to statements from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Business Recorder, Dawn). The situation has escalated to the point where the UK government expressed fears that the military actions could lead to a wider Middle East conflict, highlighting the urgency of diplomatic efforts (ARY News).
