Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>A Celtic fans\u2019 group displayed Palestinian flags at a UEFA Champions League match against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, despite an appeal by the Scottish club.<\/p>\n

The Green Brigade previously announced that they would show their support for Palestine by displaying its flag at Wednesday’s game.<\/p>\n

They have already been banned by the club from attending its away matches after displaying the flags at several games.<\/p>\n

In a message to supporters ahead of Wednesday\u2019s match, the players and coaching staff from both sides said they would wear black armbands “as a show of respect and support for all those affected by the conflict.\u201d<\/p>\n

The conflict in Gaza began when the Palestinian group Hamas initiated Operation Al-Aqsa Flood — a multi-pronged surprise attack that included a barrage of rocket launches and infiltrations into Israel by land, sea and air.<\/p>\n

It said the incursion was in retaliation for the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque and growing violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians.<\/p>\n

The Israeli military then launched a relentless air campaign against the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n

More than 7,900 people have been killed in the conflict, including at least 6,546 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis.<\/p>\n

Gaza\u2019s 2.3 million people have been running out of food, water, medicines and fuel, and recent aid convoys allowed into Gaza have carried only a fraction of what is needed.<\/p>\n
