ISLAMABAD, March 30, 2026 — A high-level meeting has been convened at the Aiwan-e-Sadr (Presidential Palace) under the chairmanship of the President of Pakistan to review the rapidly evolving situation in the Middle East, with military leadership also in attendance.
The meeting, which is currently underway, is being attended by federal ministers, the Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir, and the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, reflecting the broad-based national consultation being undertaken at the highest level.
According to sources, the session is focused on reviewing the escalating tensions between Iran, the United States and Israel, along with a comprehensive assessment of developments so far in the conflict.
The participation of military leadership alongside civilian government officials underscores the serious security implications the Middle East crisis holds for Pakistan, given the country’s geographic proximity to Iran and its deep religious, cultural and economic ties with the broader Muslim world.
Pakistan has consistently called for de-escalation and diplomacy in the region, and today’s meeting is expected to shape Islamabad’s official position and response strategy going forward.
