Israel-Gaza Attacks: Humza Yousaf's Wife Fears for 'Terrified' Family

BBC: The wife of Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf said her parents, who have been trapped in Gaza since the Hamas attack on Israel, are "terrified" about what might happen next.

Nadia El-Nakla also told BBC News some relatives have had their homes destroyed in missile strikes.

Elizabeth El-Nakla and Maged El-Nakla, who live in Dundee, travelled to Gaza last week to see a sick relative.

Days into their trip Hamas killed 1,200 people, Israeli officials say.

Palestinian health officials say 1,200 people have died in Israeli airstrikes in Gaza as the death toll continues to rise in the conflict.

On Tuesday Mr Yousaf called for the creation of a humanitarian corridor in and out of locked-down Gaza. » | James Cook & Paul O'Hare, Scotland editor | Thursday, October 12, 203
