Pakistan supports Iran's right to develop nuclear capability for peaceful purposes
Pakistan on Sunday supported Iran's right to develop nuclear capability for peaceful purposes, as the two sides signed several agreements to expand cooperation in multiple fields. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, who arrived in Islamabad on Saturday, met Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif at his official residence. At a joint press conference following their meeting, Sharif emphasised that Iran has the right to the peaceful use of nuclear energy, which has been at the centre of the ongoing tensions with Israel. "Pakistan stands with Iran for the acquisition of peaceful nuclear power," he said. Interestingly, Sharif's remarks come amid heightened tensions between Iran and the US, which has designated Pakistan a "major non-NATO ally", over Tehran's nuclear programme. In June, Israel and the US launched coordinated airstrikes on key Iranian nuclear facilities. Iran suspended cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) following the attacks. During the press conference, Prime Minister Sharif condemned "Israeli aggression" against Iran and expressed solidarity with Tehran's right to self-defence. He criticised Israel's actions in Gaza and called upon the international community, particularly Muslim nations, to address the ongoing human rights violations in the region. Sharif said the two sides have signed several MoUs and made commitments and hoped that they would soon be transformed into agreements. He said Pakistan and Iran are aiming to achieve the target of USD 10 billion in annual trade. The two leaders also discussed issues related to terrorism and agreed to strengthen cooperation to combat militancy along their shared border. President Pezeshkian, in his remarks, said that the MoUs signed also included one about finalisation of the free trade agreement at the earliest between the two sides. According to state-run Radio Pakistan, Pakistan and Iran exchanged 12 agreements and MoUs in the presence of Sharif and Pezeshkian. The agreements and MoUs included cooperation in trade, agriculture, science, technology and innovation, information and communications, culture, art, tourism, climate, and maritime safety.

Netanyahu in 'profound shock' after Hamas video of Israeli hostage digging own grave
As the war in Gaza rages on, Palestinian militant group Hamas has released a video of the remaining hostages in its captivity. The new hostage video has reportedly left Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 'profound shock.' In one of the videos, Israeli hostage Evyatar David tells the camera that he is 'digging his own grave.'(AFP/Reuters) In a statement from Netanyahu's office, the Israeli PM stated he had spoken to the families of the two hostages - Rom Braslavski and Evyatar Davi - shown in the video. The Israeli PM "told the families that the efforts to return all our hostages are ongoing", the statement from his office added. Over the past few days, Hamas and its ally Islamic Jihad have released three videos showing two hostages, who were captured during the October 7, 2023. attack on Israel. In the videos, hostages Rom Braslavski and Evyatar David are seen as Hamas leaders continue to hold them in captivity in underground tunnels. The videos have also fuelled renewed calls to reach a truce and hostage release deal without delay. Earlier in the day, tens of thousands of people had rallied in the coastal hub of Tel Aviv to urge Netanyahu's government to secure the release of the remaining captives. 'Time if running out' In the clips shared by the Palestinian Islamist groups, 21-year-old Braslavski, a German-Israeli dual national, and 24-year-old David both appear weak and malnourished. In one of the videos, Israeli hostage Evyatar David tells the camera that he is 'digging his own grave.' "What I'm doing now is digging my own grave. Every day my body becomes weaker and weaker. I'm walking directly to my grave. There is the grave where I am going to be buried in. Time is running out to be released and be able to sleep in my bed with my family." David is heard saying in the video released by Hamas as the 24-year-old breaks down at the end of the statement. "The deliberate starvation of our son as part of a propaganda campaign is one of the most horrifying acts the world has seen. He is being starved purely to serve Hamas's propaganda," read a statement issued by David's family as protests took over Israel over the Netanyahu government's delayed response to a hostage deal. The images and videos of the hostages made the frontpages of Israeli newspapers. Maariv showcased the "hell in Gaza" and Yedioth Ahronoth showing a "malnourished, emaciated and desperate" David. Left-leaning Haaretz declared that "Netanyahu is in no rush" to rescue the captives, echoing claims by critics and protestors across the state that the war has been prolonged for Bibi's political agenda. France, EU condemn videos The videos released by Hamas have drawn global criticism towards the treatment of the hostages as well as the ongoing famine situation in the Gaza Strip. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said the images "are appalling and expose the barbarity of Hamas", calling for the release of "all hostages... immediately and unconditionally". In the same post on X, Kallas said that "Hamas must disarm and end its rule in Gaza." France, which earned backlash for its move to recognise Palestine, has also condemned the videos. "Despicable, unbearable images of the Israeli hostages held for 666 days in Gaza by Hamas. They must be freed, without conditions," wrote French foreign minister Jean-Noel Barrot on Sunday, adding that 'Hamas must be disarmed and excluded from ruling Gaza.' 60,000 killed in Gaza The Hamas attack of 2023 in southern Israel resulted in the deaths of around 1,200 people. Following the attack, Hamas attackers took around 250 hostages. Of these, 49 hostages are still being held in Gaza. However, as per the Israeli military, 27 are feared dead. Around 100 to 150 hostages were released during the truce pauses in November 2024 and earlier this year. Meanwhile, Israel's onslaught across the Gaza Strip has killed around 60,000 Palestinians. Of this, a majority of the death toll has been attributed to women and children.
