PRO-PALESTINIAN activists will protest against a visit tonight by Israeli ambassador Mark Regev to Cardiff University.

Mr Regev, who was regularly trotted out on TV to justify Israeli war crimes in his previous role as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s spokesman, is due to speak at an event on campus, part of his continuing tour of universities aimed at stemming the rising opposition to Israeli aggression.

When Mr Regev visited the Scottish Parliament in May, he was faced by mass protests.
