Celtic supporters continued to show support for Palestine with a display before the match against Hibs.
Celtic supporters have continued to show support for Palestine amid the ongoing conflict with Israel.
Fans defied the club appeal in midweek during the Champions League fixture and today displayed Palestine flags in the away match against Hibs. Despite the ban, a Green Brigade flag was placed at the bottom of the stand at Easter Road near where a cluster of supporters raised Palestine flags. "Today, we are in familiar territory and already being sanctioned by the Board. Currently, hundreds of fans are suspended from away matches due to an association with the Green Brigade; despite receiving no correspondence, no allegations, nor any detail regarding any investigatory process.
"Despite disingenuous claims, we have absolutely no doubt that these sanctions are motivated by a desire to quash political expression within the Celtic support, specifically in relation to Palestine at this time.
