Earlier on Saturday, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif paid tribute to Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani saying his death "infused a new spirit in the struggle for freedom" in the Valley. Wani was killed by Indian forces in an encounter on July 8 in 2016.
According to Dunya News, Sharif reiterated that Pakistan remains shoulder to shoulder with their Kashmiri brethren and will continue their political, diplomatic and moral support in their right to self-determination.
Pakistan Army chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa also praised Wani.
Last year, India had criticised Sharif calling Wani a "martyr".
Sharif had also announced at the time that Pakistan will observe July 19 as Black Day to express their solidarity with the people of Kashmir.
