The rise and fall of Humza Yousaf: Scotland's FM resigns
Humza Yousaf has announced his resignation as Scotland's first minister ahead of forthcoming confidence votes.
Mr Yousaf had been battling for his political survival after terminating the power-sharing deal between the SNP and Scottish Greens on Thursday.
He entered Holyrood in 2011, first as a regional MSP and then as the representative for Glasgow Pollok five years later.
In 2012, he became a junior minister in Alex Salmondās government, before being promoted to the Scottish Cabinet during Nicola Sturgeonās premiership.
He went on to become the youngest and the first Asian and Muslim first minister in the officeās history.

Israel faced a dramatic escalation as Yemenās Houthi rebels launched four ballistic missile attacks within 24 hours, targeting key military sites and population centers. Among the weapons used was the "Palestine-2" hypersonic missile, which reportedly struck near Tel Aviv, triggering widespread air raid sirens and panic. Though the Israeli Defense Forces claim successful interceptions, missile debris injured civilians and landed as far as a kindergarten.
