ISLAMABAD: The AJK assembly in its meeting on Wednesday in
Muzaffarabad through a unanimous resolution condemned the recent attacks by the Nato and ISAF forces on two border posts inside Pakistan territory at
Salala in Mohmand Agency, sympathized with the mourning families of those martyred officers and jawans of Pakistan army and upheld the post-attacks
decisions taken by the political and military leaderships of Pakistan to check recurrence of such incidents in future.
As per release of the
AJK PID the resolution says: "The Legislative Assembly of Azad Jammu & Kashmir unanimously condemns the unprovoked attacks by ISAF and NATO forces on
two Pakistan Army check-posts in Mohmand Agency, resulting in the martyrdom of 24 Pakistani soldiers. The House believes that the attacks are not only
a clear violation of territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Pakistan, but also a violation of international law, besides being
detrimental to global peace and security. This step violates the mandate of NATO and ISAF in Afghanistan as given by the international
community.
“ The House applauds the stance taken by the political and military leadership of Pakistan and, hereby, expresses its
heartfelt condolences with the bereaved families of martyred soldiers and prays for early recovery of officials injured during the attack. In this

ISAF and NATO forces.

Kashmiri nation to stand by them and offer every sacrifice in the event of any aggression on the sovereignty, integrity and independence of the
Islamic Republic.
“ The House extends its full support to the political leadership and the Armed Forces of Pakistan in safeguarding the
ideological and geographical frontiers of the country".
It urges the United Nations Security Council to take a serious note of ISAF and NATO
Forces action for being a naked violation of UN Charter and International Humanitarian Law.

fulfill the cause of elimination of global terrorism and their recurrence could have serious implications for peace and security of the world in
general and of this region in particular
