Palestine solidarity campaigners in Scotland are today lobbying the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh following Holyrood’s decision to demand an immediate arms embargo against Israel.

As reported in yesterday’s Morning Star, the Parliament also called for a United Nations-led investigation into Israel’s war crimes against the people of Gaza, where more than 1,800 have died in Israel’s most recent murderous attacks.

Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign members welcomed the calls for an embargo and a war-crimes investigation and will stage the lobby at noon to meet MSPs who backed the calls, and maintain the focus on Gaza.
