Seven Pakistani antiquities were returned to Islamabad from Rome on Tuesday. The artifacts were handed over to the Pakistani Consul General in Milan by Italian authorities.
This follows the return of 90 historical items to Pakistan last October.
The embassy highlighted ongoing cooperation between the two countries in cultural heritage protection and archaeology, noting that diplomatic relations have been effective in recovering smuggled artifacts.
Italian law enforcement agencies played a crucial role in this operation. The Pakistani embassy expressed gratitude to Italy’s Ministry of Culture for facilitating the return process.
Pakistan is home to some of the world’s oldest civilizations, including the ancient sites of Mehrgarh, Mohenjo-Daro, and Gandhara.
