He made a plea to Pakistanis, particularly the rich, to actively contribute to the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund for Lebanon and Gaza.

Those Pakistanis living in the nation and outside can make donations to the account with the IBAN: PK11SBPD000000111111429.

He urged the media and Pakistan to launch a comprehensive effort to raise awareness of the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund for Lebanon and Gaza.

During the meeting, the Prime Minister was briefed regarding the relief operations by Pakistan in Lebanon and Gaza.

It was explained to the gathering that Pakistan is sending tents, clothing, blankets, food, medicine, and drinking water to its brothers and sisters in Gaza and Lebanon who are impacted by the Israeli attack.

It is difficult for the impacted areas of Palestine and Lebanon to obtain relief supplies because of Israeli bombings and sieges.

The NGOs which want to send relief goods for the victims of Gaza and Lebanon will be provided facilities by the Government of Pakistan regarding the delivery of relief goods.
