After being caught forging Lahore rally images, Maryam Nawaz has madeanother gaffe on Twitter, exposing her father’s relations with Israel.

The Vice-President of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), who has a largefan following on Twitter, had mistakenly shared the link to an interview ofi24, an Israeli news channel, believing that Noor Dahri, a UK-based scholarhad exposed how Prime Minister Imran Khan had sent an advisor to Israel ina bid to normalize ties with the Jewish state.——————————

She apparently wanted to use this interview as a political card against PMKhan but was caught off guard, as the footage also included a mention ofher father having previously offered an olive branch to Israel.

Dahri revealed that Nawaz Sharif had sent official delegations to Israeltwice during his first two tenures as a premier.

He started detailing how an unnamed advisor to PM had visited Israel lastmonth with a special message from the premier, and then said:

PM Imran is not the only one to take this initiative. Looking at history,Nawaz Sharif sent two delegations to Israel to normalize relations.——————————

He revealed that one of the delegations even comprised of religious leadersfrom Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s party. The tweet had quickly gone viral beforebeing deleted hours later.

However, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) shared a screen recording of herdeleted tweet. Since then, #اسرائیل_کا_یار_نوازشریف has been trending onTwitter.
