Pakistan is among the countries that have no diplomatic relations with Israel because of the lingering issue of Palestinian statehood and Pakistan says no delegation from Pakistan visited Israel. The state-run Pakistan Television took to Twitter on Monday to say it fired news anchor Ahmed Qureshi who visited Israel in a “personal capacity." Qureshi was part of the delegation that visited Israel with Ali, it said. “We have no intentions of speaking for the Pakistani government whether to normalize relations with Israel or not,” Ali said. The visit appeared to go under the radar in Israel, with few media covering it and those that did doing so belatedly.
