Pakistan condemns latest drone strike


ISLAMABAD, (Monitoring Desk):   The Government of Pakistan has strongly condemned the US drone strike that took place in Mir Ali Tehsil of North Waziristan Agency on Sunday.
Foreign Office spokesman in a statement said these unilateral strikes are a violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity. He said Pakistan has repeatedly emphasized the importance of bringing an immediate end to drone strikes.
The spokesman said Pakistan has consistently maintained that drone strikes are counter-productive‚ entail loss of innocent civilian lives and

have human rights and humanitarian implications. Such strikes also set dangerous precedents in the inter-state relations.
He said these drone strikes have a negative impact on the mutual desire of both countries to forge a cordial and cooperative relationship and to ensure peace and stability in the region.
