Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the "worst criminal of humanity" and suggested the US or Turkey should "kidnap" him, drawing parallels to the capture of Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro. Asif cited the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant against Netanyahu and alleged unmatched atrocities against Palestinians in Gaza. The anchor interrupted Asif, cautioning his remarks on Netanyahu's backers could be seen as referencing Donald Trump, and cut the interview short. Israel has expressed concerns about Pakistan's potential role in Gaza.
