ISLAMABAD: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Wednesday postponed the all parties conference, convened by his party, for few days.

Fazlur Rehman said that PML-N’s proposals about the APC and other issues were came under discussion in the meeting.

It is pertinent to mention here that the differences between two major opposition parties – Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had turned the prospects of a successful APC bleak.

sources said, in order to patch up with the PPP, the leadership of PML-N had put forward the need to restore trust as its foremost precondition.

The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leadership had conditioned its participation in the opposition’s all parties conference (APC) convened by Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman.

The former ruling party was enraged over the recent statement of PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari, in which he held PML-N supreme leader Nawaz Sharif responsible for the cases against PPP leaders.

The PML-N had demanded from the leadership of PPP to first take steps to mend the trust deficit developed in the wake of recent political scenario.

A day earlier, the Sharif brothers – Nawaz and Shehbaz – decided against attending the all parties conference. The PML-M had decided that a delegation of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) would attend the APC.

Earlier, Maulana Fazlur Rehman had called on former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, on October 28, at his Jati Umra resident but he failed to convince the PML-N supreme leader to attend the ACP.

Young girl’s tragic story makes her symbol of Yemen war

Buthaina Mansur al-Rimi’s life has changed drastically since last year — orphaned in Sanaa, the little girl controversially ended up in Saudi Arabia for medical care and has just returned to Yemen’s capital. Her entire immediate family was wiped out in an air strike by a Saudi-led coalition that backs Yemen’s government, using an explosive device Amnesty International says was made in the US. Images of Buthaina’s rescue and a picture of her swollen and bruised at a hospital trying to force open one of her eyes with her fingers were beamed worldwide. That international fame saw her become something of a propaganda pawn in the war between Yemen’s Iran-backed Huthi rebels and Saudi media. “I was in my mother’s room with my father, sisters, brother and uncle, the first missile hit, and my father went to get us sugar to get over the shock, but then the second missile hit, and then the third,” she says. “And then the house fell,” adds the little girl, who says she is eight.
