Humza Yousaf’s wife Nadia El-Nakla says family trapped in Gaza injured in drone attack

The wife of Scotland's first minister has revealed that her family trapped in Gaza were injured in an Israeli drone attack.

Nadia El-Akla, who is married to Humza Yousaf, said on LBC that her three young cousins were struck by shrapnel from the drone as they were sitting outside their house.

The SNP councillor's mother, father and many of her extended family are trapped in Gaza as the conflict between Israel and Hamas takes place around them.

The 39-year-old said her mother, a retired nurse, had been treating the family for their injuries due to the lack of hospital space.
