The Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues to escalate, with Israeli forces destroying residential buildings in Gaza City, killing dozens of Palestinians, and prompting international condemnation. Several countries, including Ireland, are expected to recognize a Palestinian state, a move that has been met with criticism from US President Donald Trump. The conflict has also sparked protests and calls for action in Ireland, with the Irish Congress of Trade Unions urging workers not to facilitate trade with Israel while attacks on Gaza continue.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues to escalate, with Israeli forces destroying residential buildings in Gaza City, killing dozens of Palestinians, and prompting international condemnation. Several countries, including Ireland, are expected to recognize a Palestinian state, a move that has been met with criticism from US President Donald Trump. The conflict has also sparked protests and calls for action in Ireland, with the Irish Congress of Trade Unions urging workers not to facilitate trade with Israel while attacks on Gaza continue.
