Campaigners in Scotland to hold Kurdistan solidarity demonstration

CAMPAIGNERS in Scotland will gather in Edinburgh tomorrow to protest against the Turkish state’s killings of Kurdish citizens and its invasion of Iraqi Kurdistan.

Activists will demonstrate outside the Scottish National Gallery this morning to highlight attacks by the Turkish government on Kurdish communities, which have included the killing of civilians and the alleged use of chemical weapons. 

Concerns have been raised by Scottish Solidarity with Kurdistan and Scotland’s Kurdish community about the muted international response to the attacks, including in Scotland.
