Over 10,000 individuals congregated in Dublin's City Centre for a national demonstration advocating for Palestine. Organized by the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the protest proceeded from the Garden of Remembrance to the Dáil, where a rally awaited. More than 10,000 participants took part in this 21st national demonstration since October 2023.
Supported by over 160 Irish civil society groups, the protest marked three years of conflict in Gaza. Attendees were scheduled to hear from speakers such as IPSC Chair Zoë Lawlor and Palestinian human rights activist Talha Al Ali. Lawlor emphasized that the Gaza ceasefire remains an illusion, highlighting Israel's ongoing military occupation.
She criticized the government for abdicating responsibility and stalling on commitments to act. Transport for Ireland warned commuters that Luas green line services would experience delays due to the demonstration, advising that Luas tickets were valid on Dublin Bus during this disruption. The TFI apologized for any inconvenience caused and reassured commuters that Leap Cards could be used on all TFI services.
