On the occasion of Defense and Martyrs Day, the Pakistani legal community issued statements commemorating the sacrifices of the armed forces and expressing support for their ongoing operations.
Lawyers emphasized the significance of September 6, recalling the 1965 war, when civilians stood alongside the military against foreign aggression. They praised the armed forces for their current efforts in combating both internal and external threats to national stability.
The legal fraternity highlighted the importance of Operation Azm-e-Istehkam as a crucial phase in the success of the National Action Plan. They called for full governmental support to effectively counterterrorist organizations.
Lawyers also addressed the role of the military in anti-terror operations in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, urging public support for these efforts. They stressed the importance of the armed forces in ensuring national security, drawing parallels with the situations in Gaza and Kashmir.
The legal community expressed concern over anti-army campaigns on social media, characterizing them as attempts to sow discord between the public and the military. They called for an end to such campaigns and encouraged public support for the armed forces to boost morale and ensure national defense.
