Israeli Authorities Block Firefighter Vehicles into Hebron
The motion
That the Parliament condemns the reported decision by the Israeli authorities to block the passage of firefighter vehicles through two different checkpoints as they responded to a fire breaking out in the old town of Hebron; believes that some of the firefighters involved were trained by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service; understands with deep regret that two under-two-year-olds died unnecessarily due to this delay; believes that this is the reality of life under Israel’s illegal occupation; considers that Israel should withdraw from the Occupied Territories in line with the UN resolution, and calls on it to join with over 130 other countries in recognising the independent state of Palestine.
