In his address to the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, Sharif affirmed Pakistan's condemnation in the strongest terms of the Israeli violation of the State of Qatar's sovereignty, in the attack that targeted residential buildings in Doha, and its violation of the sovereignty of other countries in the region.
According to Qatar News Agency, the Pakistani Prime Minister also addressed the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, describing it as genocide against innocent Palestinian civilians.
