Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi who is in Turkey has said that contacts are being established with different countries to get stopped the Israeli persecution of Palestinians.

In a statement on Tuesday, he said the Muslims residing in European countries must also play their role in this regard.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the bombardment in Palestine has resulted in power outage and affected the supplies of essential commodities. He said it will be lamentable if the international community remained silent on the Palestinian situation.

The Foreign Minister said Israel is further complicating the matter and its bombardment is making it impossible for the Palestinians to access the healthcare facilities.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi said hurdles are being created so that the Palestinian Foreign Minister could not attend the UN General Assembly session. He said we will wait for the Palestinian Foreign Minister and want him to accompany us for the session.
