Recently, Israel attacked the Iranian embassy in the Syrian capital Damascus, killing at least seven. Those killed in the strike included a senior commander of Iran’s elite Quds Force and other military figures.
The attack came amid Israel’s ongoing aggression in Gaza which has killed more than 34,000 people.
President Zardari also expressed his concern over the humanitarian crisis and the genocide being committed by the Israeli forces, calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
“The president also wished the Iranian President and his family continued well-being, health and happiness,” said the statement, adding that he also extended an invitation to the Iranian president to visit Pakistan.
