Displaced Palestinians trying to walk back from central Gaza Strip to northern Gaza Strip, April 14, 2024
THE Scottish TUC condemned Israel’s invasion of Gaza today, as well as the British government “and all UK political parties which have failed to call for a ceasefire and the immediate halting of weapons sales to Israel.”
It adopted a general council statement on the war after a special session in which delegates heard from Palestinians via videolink.
Masa Hlelel, a volunteer firefighter from Nablus, said Palestinians were “aware of the thousands of people demonstrating across Scotland and the world” for peace and justice for their people.
