Gangland feud arrests total reaches 42
The number of people arrested in connection with a gangland feud across central Scotland has now reached 42. Police Scotland arrested a 20-year-old man at an address in Glasgow on Thursday 29 May in connection with a fire-raising incident at a house on the city's Drumchapel Road on Tuesday 13 May. The man appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Friday 30 May. There has been a series of assaults, shootings and firebombing incidents in Glasgow and Edinburgh since March. Police Scotland have launched Operation Portaledge in response to the upsurge in attacks. More than 8,000 homes have been visited and over 1,600 vehicles stopped as part of the current investigation. Officers from the Specialist Crime Division are working with local divisions across the country on the operation. A series of attacks began on 2 March when a car was set on fire in Edinburgh's Parrotshot area A beauty salon in Leith and a garage in Portobello were also targeted over a 10-day period Later, shots were reported as being fired at two properties in Niddrie and Pilton in separate incidents Further firebomb attacks were reported on another house in Niddrie at the start of April, just as the first property in Glasgow was targeted in the Robroyston area A carpet business in Bishopbriggs and another commercial premises in Kirkintilloch were also hit, alongside homes in Glasgow and Stepps In April, a 72-year-old woman and a 12-year-old boy were assaulted at a house in Egilsay Crescent in Milton, Glasgow A 54-year-old man needed hospital treatment after he was attacked by a group of men at a house at Pitcairn Grove, Edinburgh Speaking in relation to the latest arrest, Det Ch Supt Dave Ferry said violence "will not be tolerated" and officers would not stop until those responsible for the crime spree are brought to justice. "We are still following positive lines of enquiry, and this arrest highlights our continued resolve to target organised crime," he said. "The support of our communities remains vital, and I want to again express my sincere thanks to the public for their continued help and information so far. "If you know anything that could assist our ongoing investigation, please do the right thing and speak to us." On Tuesday, the force said there was no evidence linking the weekend murders of two Scots in a Spanish bar to the ongoing gang war in Scotland. Eddie Lyons Jnr and Ross Monaghan were shot dead in an attack at Monaghans pub in Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol on Saturday evening. The two men have links to the Lyons crime clan. A Police Scotland statement said there was "nothing to suggest that the shooting in Fuengirola was planned from within Scotland". Detectives are believed to be examining whether the murders are linked to wider tensions between major global crime groups. Lyons, 46, and Monaghan, 43, died when a gunman opened fire on them in the bar at about 23:00 local time. He then fled the scene in a car.

Representing nation is one of the ‘greatest honors,' says history-making Palestinian soccer star Oday Dabbagh
Not many players could take a more perfect penalty: the ball confidently drilled into the top-left corner, a near-impossible save for any goalkeeper. That was how Palestinian forward Oday Dabbagh executed one of the most high-pressure scenarios of his career to date, helping his Aberdeen side to a shootout victory over Celtic in the Scottish Cup final. This was the first time in 35 years that Aberdeen had lifted the Scottish Cup, and for Dabbagh the victory was a moment of instant, undiluted joy. The sight of his penalty flying into the back of the goal, he says, is one that will 'stay with me forever.' A month earlier, Dabbagh had played an even more crucial role in Aberdeen's Scottish Cup campaign, prodding in a goal against Hearts during the final minutes of extra-time. Despite only being at the club for a four-month period, on loan from Belgian side Charleroi, the 26-year-old had quickly earned legendary status. 'It's a big one for me,' Dabbagh told CNN Sports, 'and the excitement and atmosphere here in Scotland is an unforgettable feeling. It means a lot … and at the same time, it motivates me even more for what's next.' As for what comes next in Dabbagh's club career – after his loan spell with Aberdeen ended on a spectacular high, he is set to return to Charleroi, with his current contract reportedly running until 2026. But at the forefront of his mind right now will be the Palestinian national team's attempt to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, jointly hosted by the USA, Canada and Mexico. Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 75% of all United Nations members, but it is a non-member observer state of the UN General Assembly as the United States has consistently blocked full UN membership. As a soccer team though, Palestine has been recognized by the sport's world governing body FIFA since 1998. Despite three Asian Cup appearances since then, the national team is yet to qualify for a World Cup, but the current players, including top-scorer Dabbagh, now have a chance to make history. Up next for the Palestinian national team are two crunch World Cup qualifiers against Oman and Kuwait. Currently fifth in its qualifying group, the team needs to finish third or fourth to enter the fourth round of qualifying. The odds of leapfrogging above Oman in the group are long, but the team will be well supported by those back home. For the people of Gaza, seeing its soccer team qualify for the World Cup would be a beacon of light in an otherwise harrowing period of war and bloodshed. In March, the Palestine Football Association told CNN Sports that 408 athletes have been killed in the conflict with Israel – players, officials and the majority children, including 270 soccer players. Susan Shalabi, vice president of the Palestine FA, said at the time that the organization's offices in Gaza have been either destroyed or severely damaged, and what remains is now being used to accommodate families who have lost their homes. As for home games, they have been switched to locations all over the world – Jordan, Qatar, and even Malaysia. 'In spite of the genocide our people are subjected to in Gaza,' Shalabi told CNN Sports in March, 'the will to live as a nation remains. The national team has become a symbol of our national aspirations, of the longing to live in peace like other nations under the sun.' Dabbagh is a crucial player in the Palestinian national team's bid to qualify for the World Cup. The all-time top scorer with 16 goals, including a hat-trick against Bangladesh in the first round of qualifying last year, he embraces every opportunity to represent the Lions of Canaan, long dreaming of doing so on the biggest stage. 'It's one of the greatest honors in my life,' he says to CNN. 'To wear the Palestine shirt, knowing what it means to so many people, my family, my team, and myself … it is powerful.' Dabbagh is reluctant to see himself as a trailblazer, despite being the first home-grown Palestinian player to appear in a major European league – first with Arouca in Portugal before moving to Charleroi in 2023. 'I do hope what I can achieve helps make the path a little clearer for others,' he says. 'I know how much football means to everyone back home, and I don't take that lightly. Everyone has a dream. If a kid back home sees me and starts to believe it's possible, that means everything. And I do carry that with me every time I play.' Dabbagh made his professional debut for Hilal Al-Quds in the West Bank Premier League, aged only 16. He went on to win three league titles before representing a series of teams in Kuwait, winning another title with Al-Arabi in 2021. Moves to Portugal, Belgium, and then Scotland followed – an unprecedented career arc for a player who grew up kicking a ball on the streets of Jerusalem. He hopes to send a clear message to other young boys and girls now in the same situation he once was. 'Never stop believing,' says Dabbagh. 'Work hard, stay focused, and never lose your passion. You belong on the world stage.' Dabbagh and his teammates could be on the biggest stage of them all should the Palestinian national team qualify for the World Cup. For the forward, that would surely be the high point in an unlikely and trophy-laden career. CNN's Don Riddell contributed to reporting.
