Bernard's mother and family went out of their way to tell me that they would be praying for my family in Gaza. We hugged, we cried, and we promised to re-dedicate ourselves to peace and to be unequivocal; no innocent man, woman, or child should pay the price of another's actions.
First Minister@ScotGovFM

First Minister @HumzaYousaf attended a service of prayer and solidarity last night with Scotland’s Jewish community. Expressing sorrow for those who lost loved ones, he said @scotgov stands in solidarity with all communities in Scotland suffering the loss of innocent life.

I’m really struggling to find hope and humanity, but yesterday @HumzaYousaf - who has family trapped in Gaza - spent the evening grieving with and comforting our community. This picture of him and Bernard Cowan’s mother really touched me and maybe it will give you some hope too.

"Your grief is my grief." A powerful image as @ScotGovFM @HumzaYousaf took time to speak with, and comfort, the mother and family of Glasgow born Bernard Cowan who was killed this weekend in Israel.
