"I Was Scotland’s Most Powerful Politician, My Family Were Still Trapped in Gaza" | Humza Yousaf

In this episode of Palestine Deep Dive, we sit down with Humza Yousaf, former First Minister of Scotland, for a deeply personal conversation about his latest book “Under Fire: My Family's Escape from Gaza and The Cost of Leadership”.

Yousaf opens up about the experience of watching his Palestinian in-laws become trapped in Gaza during Israel’s assault, despite his position as Scotland’s First Minister and his efforts to secure their evacuation.

The conversation touches on Gaza, Palestine, British politics, racism, and the limits of political power.
