Edinburgh saw a protest of around 100 people by the Royal Academy of Scotland near the foot of the Mound in the space between East and West Princes Street gardens. Against a background of dozens of Palestinian flags, banners and placards read `Israel stop bombing Gaza`, Boycott to stop Israeli war crimes`, and `End Israeli war crimes`. Speakers included Kevin Connor and solidarity’s Willie Black.
