Pro-Palestinian protesters scale Scottish Parliament roof
By Angus CochraneBBC Scotland News
A group of pro-Palestinian protesters have occupied The Roof of the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh.
Five people demonstrated with a large hand-painted sign which reads " Stop arming Israel".
A large Palestinian flag was also attached to The Front of The Building in a prominent position.
Police Scotland officers closed off the area in front of The Building and spoke to protesters.
A force spokesperson said: " We Are aware of the protest and officers are in attendance. "
Large pro-Palestinian protests have been held in recent days in both Glasgow and Edinburgh, with activists occupying both Glasgow Queen Street and Edinburgh Waverley train stations.
Marches have been taking place across the UK to urge an end to Israeli attacks in Gaza.
First Minister Humza Yousaf , whose parents-in-law escaped from Gaza last week after four weeks under Israeli siege, has backed The Right of protesters to hold further events on Armistice Day on Saturday.
It came after Home Secretary Suella Braverman described a planned pro-Palestinian event in London on Armistice Day as a " hate march".
Border Crossings in and out of Gaza had been closed since 7 October, when Hamas, which is a proscribed terrorist organisation in the UK, attacked Israel, killing More Than 1,400 people and taking More Than 240 hostage.
Since then Israel has been carrying out military action in Gaza. The Hamas-run health ministry says More Than 10,000 people have died.
