As tensions escalate between Iran and Israel, the spotlight now turns to Pakistan’s controversial stance. Iranian Security Council member Mohsen Rezaei claimed that Pakistan may support Iran with nuclear weapons if Israel attempts a nuclear strike.

Israel said on Friday it targeted nuclear facilities, ballistic missile factories and military commanders in a "preemptive strike" to prevent Tehran from building an atomic weapon. Several brokerages had initially expected a cut but revised their forecasts after the Israeli strikes sparked fears of a broader conflict.
