Furthermore, Pakistan reiterated its support for the two-state solution in accordance with the relevant United Nations and OIC resolutions, with the pre-1967 borders, and Al-Quds Al-Sharif as the capital of a viable, independent and contiguous Palestinian State.
The development comes as earlier, Israeli forces targeted worshippers inside Al-Aqsa mosque with tear gas, rubber bullets and stun grenades injuring more than 200 Palestinians.
