Humza Yousaf Faces Scrutiny Over Gaza Aid Decision

The Scottish First Minister's decision to redirect aid to UNRWA, overruling official advice, sparks controversy amid family ties to Gaza.

Humza Yousaf, Scotland's First Minister, overruled official advice to redirect £250,000 in aid from Unicef to the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for Gaza.
The decision has been criticized by opponents as a potential conflict of interest, given Yousaf's family ties to Gaza.
Yousaf has defended the move, citing UNRWA as the most flexible option for delivering aid, despite allegations of the agency's links to Hamas.
Opposition MSP Stephen Kerr has been accused of Islamophobia for questioning Yousaf's motivations, a claim he and others deny.
SNP deputy leader Keith Brown has called for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to block Kerr from running as a candidate in the next general election, citing the controversy.
