During a Holyrood debate on Scotland's priorities for the UK Budget, Kim Schmulian praised Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and told MSPs the UK could "learn much" from Israel's approach to defence. The remarks came days after Gaza's Health Ministry said the Palestinian death toll had passed 74,000. The Scottish Greens called the comments "utterly vile" and demanded an apology.
