Yousaf accuses UK government of ignoring heartfelt pléa for restraint
SUNAK SNUB

HUMZA Yousaf has accused Rishi Sunak's government of snubbing his plea for restraint as his relatives face being trapped in Gaza during the feared Israeli invasion.

The First Minister wrote to Tory Foreign Secretary James Cleverly about his relatives and was "angry" and "disappointed" to receive no reply.

Yousaf also accused the UK Government of not valuing Palestinian lives as highly as Israeli lives and said that Israel had gone "too far" with its "collective punishment".

Both Yousaf and his wife, Nadia El-Nakla, have spoken about their fears for her family who are trapped in the warzone. This includes her parents, grandmother, brother and his children.

Nadia's parents, Elizabeth and Maged El-Nakla, travelled to Gaza last week to visit his 93-year-old mother. Hamas attacked Israel at the weekend, prompting reprisals and senior Israeli officials declaring a "siege" of the territory.

The Israeli military has since told 1.1 million people in north Gaza to flee within 24 hours.

Yousaf said he was "disappointed" Sunak and Cleverly had not been in contact with him.
