Fans of Scottish Premier League Club Celtic FC have shown their support for the Palestinian people in the aftermath of surprise Hamas incursions into Israel early Saturday.
The Celtic FC fans are known for their longstanding support of Palestine.
Also known the ‘Green Brigade’, they unfurled banners which read “Free Palestine” and “Victory to the resistance” as well as waved flags during their team’s 3-1 win over Kilmarnock at Parkhead. Images of the fans waving flags and banners were widely shared on social media.

Palestinian resistance factions in Gaza, primarily led by Hamas, declared on Saturday morning a full-scale military operation into the towns and settlements located along the separation fence with Gaza.
The attack marked an unprecedented infiltration into Israel by an unknown number of Hamas gunmen crossing from the Gaza Strip, and the heaviest blow for Israel in the conflict with Palestinians since the suicide bombings of the Second Intifada some two decades ago.

Israel’s retaliation strikes on Sunday struck 426 targets in Gaza, its military said, flattening residential buildings in giant explosions.
That included a 14-storey tower that held dozens of apartments as well as Hamas offices in central Gaza City. Israeli forces fired a warning just before.
