A session of Pakistan’s Senate on Monday began with a Fateha for Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, chaired by Senate Chairman Yousuf Raza Gilani, state broadcaster Pakistan Television Corporation reported.

The Fateha was conducted by Opposition Leader Allama Raja Nasser Abbas, who condemned what he described as an Israeli attack on Iran late last night targeting the Supreme Leader.

Addressing the House, he criticised U.S. policies, saying attacks were carried out during negotiations with Iran and alleging that the United States does not uphold agreements. He said Pakistan has always stood for the rights of the Palestinian people and condemned Israel’s actions.

He also demanded that U.S. President Donald Trump’s nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize be withdrawn and called for a review of Pakistan’s participation in relevant international forums.

The private members’ agenda was postponed at the request of Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar. Gilani said the situation in Iran would be discussed in the meeting.

Pakistan Peoples Party parliamentary leader Sherry Rehman raised objections to the postponement, while the law minister said proceedings were deferred due to a meeting of parliamentary parties.

The Senate session was adjourned until 11:30 am Tuesday.
