The premier said the major reason for the shift in public opinion is social media which played a major role in exposing the Israeli assault on Palestinians.
PM Imran said since the creation of Israel Pakistan has always supported Palestinians at all international forums in line with the vision of Quaid-i-Azam.

Earlier in the day, PM Imran had said that Israel’s continued aggression against Palestinians “remains a matter of deep concern for everyone”.
“The international community must take urgent actions to stop Israeli attacks against Palestinians, prevent the desecration of holy places, especially the Al Aqsa mosque, and facilitate a just and lasting solution in line with the relevant UN resolutions and the two-state vision,” he added.
