ISLAMABAD: Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony minister Sardar Muhammad Yousaf on Wednesday strongly rejected President Trump’s decision to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and also urged the Muslim ummah to take a united stand against the Israeli atrocities.

Addressing an international Jerusalem conference in Egypt, he thanked the Imam of the Al-Azhar University for arranging such a conference on the Palestine issue, a message received here said.

Yousaf said that the Palestine issue was very sensitive for the whole Muslim ummah and such conferences were imperative for mustering the support of all the Muslims. He also said that Pakistan always supported Palestine and condemned the atrocities of Israel, adding that the country had played a vital role in giving the UN membership to Palestine.

He said that Arabs were the aboriginal inhabitants of Palestine and Israel was an illegal state.

He asked the international media to support the just cause of the Palestinians and highlight the Israeli atrocities against the people of Palestine.
