Thousands join Scottish independence rally

Thousands of people attended a pro-independence rally in Edinburgh on Saturday,  as organisers claimed the appetite for an independent Scotland is growing in the face of a potential No Deal Brexit.

Similar marches have taken place in Glasgow, Aberdeen and Perth in recent months, with support from various organisations that back Scottish independence.

Though Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, did not join the event, she released a statement saying she was there “in spirit”.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
