He said the issue of Kashmir was the core one and would always be integral to any such dialogue.

About the escalation of tensions between India and Pakistan, the spokesperson said, “We have activated the UN Military Observer Group for India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) and the group will be taken for a visit to the site where the Indian Air Force jets were shot down.”

He said the arrested Indian pilot was safe and sound. It would be decided in a couple of days whether the pilot would be given the status of prisoner of war or not, he added.

To a query, Faisal said if Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj went to the Organisation of International Cooperation (OIC) session then Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi will not attend it.

He lauded Pakistani media for propagating peace. “Situation would have been different, if such an incident would have taken place in India,” he said lashing out at the Indian media’s uncalled for chauvinism.

The spokesman said Pakistan was in contact with the world on the ongoing situation.

He said the Indian government was pushing the region towards war for the sake of 22 seats.

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.
