Pakistan calls for reinforcing protection of civilians

NEW YORK (Dunya News) - At the United Nations, Pakistan has called for reinforcing the concept of protection of civilians and accountability in all situations of armed conflict, including in Palestine and Jammu and Kashmir.

In a statement in New York, Pakistan s Permanent Representative to the world body in New York Munir Akram submitted to the Security Council said there should be no impunity for violators of international law.

He said India’s illegal actions since August 5, 2019 to impose what its leaders have called a “final solution” for occupied Kashmir constitutes grave violations of Security Council resolutions and international law.

Munir Akram said those responsible for such grave and consistent breaches of human rights and international humanitarian laws in occupied territory must be held accountable.
