The family of a Scot killed in Israel say they're suffered a 'huge loss'.

57 year old Bernard Cowan, who grew up in Newton Mearns, was named by his relatives on social media.

In a later statement his family said: "We are grieving the loss of our son and brother, Bernard Cowan, who was horrifically murdered on Saturday during the surprise terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas.

"We ask for privacy at this time while we process this huge loss to our family, both at home and in Israel, and to the Jewish community in Glasgow where he will be sorely missed."
