I have learnt with deep concern about the unfortunate incident involving an attack on a commercial vessel in the Red Sea.
He also directed the embassy to ensure “all possible assistance” was provided to the Pakistani national who was injured in the attack.
Dar “strongly condemned the Houthi attack on a non-combatant commercial vessel”, saying such attacks “endanger innocent lives” and “constitute a violation of international law”.
