Pakistan Senate Condemns Netanyahu'S Alliance Remarks Against Muslim States

On February 24, 2026, Pakistan's Senate unanimously passed a resolution condemning Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks about forming a 'hexagon of alliances' with India and other nations aimed at countering Muslim states. The resolution, introduced by PPP's Palwasha Zai, criticized Netanyahu's strategy as a provocative narrative that threatens the unity of the Muslim Ummah. Netanyahu had stated during a cabinet meeting that Israel intends to create a coalition with countries like India, Greece, and others, emphasizing the need to confront both radical Shia and Sunni factions. He claimed, "We will create an entire system — essentially a kind of hexagon of alliances — around or within the Middle East," highlighting the urgency of these alliances in the face of perceived threats (Geo News, Dawn). The Senate's resolution expressed strong disapproval of any Israeli efforts that undermine the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Islamic nations, particularly condemning Israel's recognition of Somaliland's independence, which had already drawn backlash from multiple countries and organizations, including the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
