Why Northern Ireland was the 'perfect place' for Robin Hood's death
The Death of Robin Hood, which stars Hugh Jackman and Jodie Comer, was filmed entirely in Northern Ireland.
Four Israeli athletes were set to compete in the City of Derry Triathlon, a triathlon event in Londonderry, Northern Ireland. However, the event's organizers, the North West Triathlon Club, decided to withdraw their participation after the club objected to the inclusion of the Israeli athletes. The decision came after the club made strong representations to Triathlon Ireland and Europe Triathlon, stating that it could not support the athletes' participation due to Israel's representation in international sports amidst the ongoing suffering of Palestinians.
The club emphasized that the decision was not based on the athletes' religion or ethnicity but rather on Israel's involvement in sports. The withdrawal has sparked criticism from Julie Middleton, a member of the Northern Ireland Assembly, who viewed the exclusion as a negative reflection on Londonderry. The club's stance became apparent after the provisional entry list was published on the World Triathlon website, and the Police Service of Northern Ireland warned of potential protest activity linked to the event following the announcement.
