The association of Pakistan's former military officers, Pakistan Ex-Servicemen Society, on Monday demanded the government to raise the issue of the US drone attacks in the UN Security Council. It also demanded Islamabad to withdraw its ambassador from the United States and not to send any delegation to the US.

The Ex-Servicemen Society demanded that government should take up the matter of continuous violations of territorial integrity by the US unmanned drones at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).

Addressing a press conference here on Monday, ex-servicemen said cross-border violations have increased during this regime.

The government is adopting a two-pronged strategy by protesting against the attacks on one hand while on the other hand, it is allowing its border territories be violated, creating furor at home, they commented.

Ex-servicemen urged the government to call back its ambassador from the US, adding that more delegations should not be sent to America.
