Two arrested after protesters throw milk at Joe Biden during Trinity College Dublin visit
Police arrested two men and charged one after protesters confronted the former president over Gaza while he was in Dublin to watch his son Hunter receive a medal.
Two men were arrested in Dublin on Tuesday after protesters threw milk at former US President Joe Biden during a surprise visit to Trinity College. The demonstration broke out over Biden's stance on the conflict in Gaza, with protesters accusing him of "killing students across the globe." Security personnel and police restrained the demonstrators, who threw objects including milk as Biden and his wife Jill left the university.
One individual was charged, while Irish police claimed only one protester was physically restrained. The university and student unions have condemned the police's use of force, emphasizing the right to peaceful protest.
