WATCH | Mbalula calls for isolation of Israel

JOHANNESBURG - ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula has called on the world to isolate Israel, just like it isolated South Africa's apartheid regime.

Mbalula was among thousands of people who turned out for a march in solidarity with Palestine in Cape Town on Saturday.
He added that the march was adding a much-needed voice against Israel's onslaught in Gaza.

"Many people will say why do we concern ourselves about something that is happening so far away from us, remember, we would have never been free if people never occupied the streets and called for the isolation of the apartheid regime," he said.

"We doing the same, the apartheid Israel must free the Palestinian people."

The latest conflict has killed hundreds of people.
