TEHRAN (FNA)- The Pakistani government announced on Saturday that Islamabad will never recognize the Zionist regime of Israel, and strongly rejected reports alleging that Pakistan has inaugurated an office in Tel Aviv.

The spokesman further dismissed the media reports alleging that the Islamabad government has opened an office in Tel Aviv, and described such reports as "rumors" and "irresponsible" statements.
