PM Kakar vehemently denounced the Israeli assault on Al-Ahly Al-Mamadany Hospital in Gaza, emphasizing the substantial toll on civilians. He characterized the targeting of a hospital, a refuge for those in need, as an “indefensible act of inhumanity.” Stressing the protection afforded by international humanitarian law to hospitals and medical personnel, he called for accountability in the face of such atrocities.
