"Senator Mushtaq is fine and in high spirits. I lauded the courage and steadfastness of Senator Mushtaq for being part of the Sumud Flotilla in support of the Palestinian cause, to break the siege to deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. Senator Mushtaq thanked for the efforts made by the Pakistan Foreign Office in reaching out to him in Tel Aviv, Israel through a friendly European Country’s mission there and for the full support and facilitation for his stay and safety in Amman by Pakistan Embassy.
On arrival in Islamabad from Malaysia, I have just spoken over the phone with former Senator Mushtaq through Pakistan’s Ambassador in Amman.
