Masood Azhar's CV got updated. He's not simply the founder of Pakistan-based terrorist organisation Jaish-e-Mohammad, but he's now a "global terrorist" according to the UNSC. Usually updating the CV would mean a better job but unfortunately for Masood Azhar, now there are sanctions against him.

In this edition of The Big Story we talk about Masood Azhar, what the UNSC sanctions mean, and most importantly, how China took a U-turn and finally decide to lift its hold on a proposal to blacklist him. Tune in!
