Nadia El-Nakla, an SNP councillor and the wife of Scotland’s first minister, says she is “pleading” with the UK government to let her host her Palestinian brother, as she revealed that her sister-in-law and their four children had escaped from Gaza after an intervention by the Turkish government.
El-Nakla called for a scheme similar to that offered to Ukrainian citizens “so that people aren’t caged into a war with no hope of survival”.
