The Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghadam, expressed his sincere appreciation for the swift and heroic actions taken by the Pakistan Navy in rescuing 23 Iranian fishermen following a distress call from a fishing vessel in open waters. Demonstrating commitment and professionalism, the Pakistan Navy’s timely response ensured the safety of all those aboard the boat involved in this unfortunate incident.
In his message of gratitude, Reza Amiri Moghadam acknowledged the longstanding cooperation and mutual support between Iran and Pakistan, especially in rescue and humanitarian assistance operations within international waters. “Iran and Pakistan have close mutual support and cooperation in the Rescue and Humanitarian Assistance Operations at international waters,” Ambassador Moghadam emphasized.
