Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposal for a "hexagon of alliances" with India has alarmed Pakistan, which Islamabad has referred to as a "anti-Muslim Ummah bloc." A resolution denouncing Netanyahu's intention to form an alliance with New Delhi and other nations to oppose the "radical Shia axis" of Islamic states was unanimously approved by the Pakistani Senate.
Palwasha Mohammad Zai Khan, a member of the Pakistan Peoples Party, introduced the resolution against Israel's policies and actions on behalf of all political parties. The PPP is an essential component of the ruling coalition led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.

According to a report by The Express Tribune, the resolution denounced any attempts to change the legal or historical status of occupied Palestinian territories, including sacred sites. "The Senate takes strong exception to statements that undermine regional stability and international legal norms," it stated.
A "vile proclivity of the leadership of the Israeli occupying power towards diminishing the unity and integrity of the Muslim Ummah on political and ideological grounds" was another term used in the resolution to describe Netanyahu's statement.The Arabic word "ummah" means "nation" or "community."

The Senate also reaffirmed its support for Palestinian self-determination and opposed Israel's purported acceptance of Somaliland's independence, arguing that it was against international norms. Muslim countries and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation strongly condemned Israel's decision to become the first country to formally recognize Somaliland as an independent and sovereign state in December.
Netanyahu's Pitch Prior to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Wednesday visit to Tel Aviv, Netanyahu declared that Israel "will create an entire system—essentially a kind of hexagon of alliances—around or within the Middle East."
Netanyahu cited the prospective alliance's members as Greece, India, the Greek Cypriot Administration, and unidentified Arab, African, and Asian nations."To create an axis of countries that see reality, the challenges, and the goals in the same way, in contrast to the radical axes," the Israeli prime minister stated, was the alliance's stated objective. "Both the radical Shia axis, which we have hit very hard, and also the emerging axis—the radical Sunni axis."
Netanyahu presented the coalition as a counterweight to the "emerging radical Sunni axis" associated with ISIS remnants and the "radical Shia axis," which is headed by Iran and its proxies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.
