Islamabad, Special Assistant on Human Rights, Mushaal Hussein Mullick, has called upon the international community today in Rawalpindi to place economic and defense sanctions on Israel, criticizing the country for its severe actions against Palestinians.

According to a news release by Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, she addressed the media, highlighting the ongoing violence and termed the situation in Palestinian territories as war crimes and genocide.
