Former premier Imran Khan has said that no condemnation is enough “for themassacre being carried out by the apartheid state of Israel in Rafah.”

In a statement posted on Instagram, the incarcerated PTI founder said “Israel’s genocide of Palestinians continues unabated in complete violation of all international laws, and despite the ICJ ruling.”

“If ever there was a rogue state in all senses of the word, it is Israel, which sees itself above all international laws & norms of intra-human conduct,” the statement read.
