Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar suffered a \u201chairline fracture\u201d in his shoulder after slipping and falling while welcoming Egypt\u2019s foreign minister in Islamabad, his son Ali Dar said late on Sunday.<\/p>\n
In a post on X, Ali Dar said his father continued to fulfill his \u201cofficial duties\u201d despite the injury.<\/p>\n
\u201cIshaq Dar sahib, despite sustaining an injury during the reception of the Egyptian Foreign Minister today, completed all highly important meetings throughout the day on painkillers, Alhamdulillah, in the best possible manner,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
He added that around 9pm, following the conclusion of official engagements, a medical examination was carried out at the family\u2019s insistence.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis X-rays are overall fine. There is a hairline fracture in the shoulder. In the coming few days, his pain will be managed through medications and other precautionary measures. Thank you all for your messages, prayers, and kind wishes,\u201d Ali Dar said.<\/p>\n
The incident occurred on Sunday, during a four-country meeting focused on promoting dialogue and diplomacy as the path to ending hostilities in the Gulf region.<\/p>\n
The meeting brought together foreign ministers from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and Egypt as part of a coordinated regional push to de-escalate a conflict that has now completed its first month, raising fears of wider spillover and disruption to global energy supplies.<\/p>\n
In a joint review of the situation, the ministers expressed concern over the \u201cdevastating impact on lives and livelihood\u201d and agreed that the war \u201cis not in favour of anyone and would only lead to death and destruction,\u201d Dar said.<\/p>\n
They reaffirmed the need for an immediate end to hostilities, stressed unity among Muslim countries, and backed efforts to create conditions for structured negotiations between Washington and Tehran.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
