Amid the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, Pakistan, which faced defeat by India during Operation Sindoor, has made its entry and again reiterated its old threat of nuclear weapons. Iran's National Security Council member and IRGC General Mohsen Rezaei recently stated that Islamabad had assured Iran that it would launch nuclear retaliation against Israel if the Middle Eastern country were attacked by a nuclear weapon.

Pakistan will launch a nuclear attack on Israel if it drops a nuclear bomb on Iran, a top officer of Iran's elite forces has claimed amid rising tensions in the Middle East.

So far, Pakistan has condemned Israeli aggression but stopped short of endorsing Iran’s nuclear warning. That changed slightly on Monday when Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar took to the floor of Parliament to shoot down the viral claim.
