ISLAMABAD (special crosspondent) – Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar held a telephone conversation on Thursday with his Turkish counterpart, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, to conduct a comprehensive review of the escalating crisis in Palestine and broader regional security developments.

Deep Concerns Over Regional Stability

During the high-level dialogue, the two foreign ministers expressed grave concern regarding the ongoing Israeli military offensive across the Gaza Strip and the Occupied West Bank. Both leaders emphasized their alarm over repeated incursions and violations at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem, which they noted are further destabilizing an already volatile region. The discussion also addressed the deteriorating humanitarian crisis, with both ministers calling for urgent international intervention to alleviate the suffering of civilians.

Diplomatic Coordination and Future Actions

The conversation served as a platform for exchanging perspectives on critical regional and international affairs. Minister Dar and Minister Fidan reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, particularly the right to self-determination. Addressing the humanitarian disaster often mirrors broader geopolitical challenges, much like the Ishaq Dar Discusses Gaza Crisis With Egyptian Foreign Minister Abdelatty engagement held recently to foster unity among Islamic nations.

Furthermore, the ministers deliberated on a proposal initiated by Jordan to convene an emergency meeting of Arab and Islamic states. The objective of this proposed summit is to formalize a unified diplomatic front and coordinate strategic efforts aimed at providing tangible support to the Palestinian people in the face of continued regional instability.
