He said Pakistan remains committed to meeting all external obligations on time, noting that the recent repayment of a $1.4 billion Eurobond was completed smoothly. The minister said Pakistan&rsquo;s external financing plan is well-defined and being implemented in a disciplined manner under the IMF-supported program. He added that during his visit, he held detailed talks with Saudi Finance Minister Mohammed bin Abdullah Al-Jadaan and senior Pakistani officials to finalize the support package. Aurangzeb expressed gratitude to the Saudi leadership, particularly Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, for continued financial backing and close cooperation. He said Pakistan is receiving strong recognition from international financial institutions, including the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, as well as global investors, for its economic reforms and diplomatic engagement. The minister added that Pakistan is advancing efforts to diversify funding sources through initiatives such as the Global Medium-Term Note program and a planned Panda Bond issuance. Aurangzeb reaffirmed the government&rsquo;s commitment to macroeconomic stability, continuity of reforms, and sustained engagement with bilateral and multilateral partners.

RAWALPINDI: Pakistan&#39;s military leadership condemned attacks on Saudi Arabia&#39;s petrochemical and industrial complex, calling them an unnecessary escalation that undermines efforts to resolve the Middle East conflict diplomatically, the military&rsquo;s media wing reported on Tuesday. The statement came following the 274th Corps Commanders&#39; Conference, chaired by Chief of Defense Forces Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir at General Headquarters in Rawalpindi. According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), commanders warned that the strikes carry serious consequences for ongoing peace efforts and the diplomatic environment that mediators have worked to sustain. Saudi Arabia&#39;s restraint despite repeated provocations had kept mediation viable. &ldquo;Continued attacks,&rdquo; the forum said, &ldquo;risk collapsing that process.&rdquo; The forum supported the government&#39;s efforts to end the Middle East conflict, while calling for dialogue and de-escalation in the region. The statement also noted that it affirmed Pakistan&#39;s commitment to principled diplomacy and constructive engagement. The forum also described Pakistan as a responsible regional stakeholder and active contributor to peace and stability, designating it a Regional Security Stabilizer. The conference opened with a collective prayer for soldiers, law enforcement personnel, and civilians martyred in the service of the country. The commanders paid tribute to their sacrifices, noting that their legacy forms the bedrock of Pakistan&#39;s national security. Field Marshal Asif Munir commended the armed forces for their professionalism and sustained intelligence-based counter-terrorism operations. He credited the combined effort of the government, military, and civilian population for consolidating security gains, strengthening economic resilience, and improving Pakistan&#39;s regional and global standing. On domestic security, commanders pledged to pursue and eliminate all terrorist groups operating on behalf of India and other foreign sponsors, along with their facilitators and abettors. According to the statement, Operation Ghazab lil-Haq will continue until terrorist sanctuaries are dismantled and cross-border use of Afghan territory against Pakistan ends. The forum rejected India&#39;s disinformation campaigns, baseless allegations, and false flag narratives &ndash; tactics that have been discredited internationally. The commanders also raised concern over human rights violations in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, citing a recent pattern of staged encounters used to conceal extrajudicial killings. The field marshal directed commanders to maintain operational readiness, professionalism, and adaptability across all threat levels. He expressed full confidence in the armed forces&#39; ability to ensure Pakistan&#39;s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

KYIV: Ukraine and Saudi Arabia have signed an air defence agreement during President Volodymyr Zelensky&#39;s visit to the kingdom facing Iranian drone attacks, two senior officials told AFP on Friday. Kyiv has sought to leverage its expertise in downing Russian drones to help Gulf nations, which are being attacked with the same kind of Iranian-designed Shahed drones that Russia fires on Ukraine. &quot;The point of the agreement is that Ukraine will support them in developing all the necessary components of air defence, which they currently lack,&quot; one official said of the document which, according to another was signed on Thursday. Both spoke to AFP on the condition of anonymity. Kyiv has been using a mix of cheap drone interceptors, electronic jamming tools and anti-aircraft guns to down Russian drones fired at its cities on a nightly basis for four years. It touts its anti-drone defences as the best in the world. Ukraine has proposed swapping its interceptors for vastly more expensive air-defence missiles that Gulf countries are using to down Iranian drones. Ukraine says it needs more of them to fend off Russian missile attacks. The deal signed between Ukraine and Saudi Arabia &quot;is not only about interceptors as such, but about building a system, integrating it with other air defence components, Ukrainian experience in its use, AI, and all the other elements of data analysis needed to counter Shaheds and other drones,&quot; one of the officials said. Zelensky confirmed on social media that both countries had &quot;reached an important arrangement&quot; on defence cooperation and that he had met Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman during his visit. &quot;We are ready to share our expertise and systems with Saudi Arabia,&quot; Zelensky said, adding: &quot;Saudi Arabia also has capabilities that are of interest to Ukraine, and this cooperation can be mutually beneficial.&quot; He did not disclose what exactly has been agreed as part of the deal. Zelensky also met with Ukrainian anti-drone experts that have been deployed to the country since US and Israel launched strikes on Iran that spurred retaliatory drone and missile attacks from Tehran. &quot;Even in such a short time, Ukrainian experts were able to share extensive expertise,&quot; Zelensky said. &quot;Ukraine&#39;s expertise is unique, and recognised as such, and that is why everyone is so interested in our technologies and experience.&quot;
